I am nearing the finish of my ATSF Boom Tender. Next will be modifying the crane.

Looks great.

Hope you don’t have wrecks, so it can sit on the ready track and people can admire it. But just in case, you will be prepared.

Nice looking model, be sure and post another photo when painted and lettered. Glad to see some N Scale scrafchbuilding of rolling stock - good inspiration for me!

Here is the progress so far on the ATSF Crane to go with the tender Photo’s.
I know it is not perfect but close, for me, is good.
I used some old acrylics I had on it and it just would not dry so I put Polly Scale on top and that totally hosed it up so I had to drag out the media blaster and blast all the paint off and start over with Polly Scale yellow.
I will let it dry till tomorrow and paint the blue. Boom is also painted.
