The last several months I have been working on the SierraWest HO scale worrk train. I did not post any progress photos because I worked a little bit on this car and then that car etc. did not make sense to me, but here are my final pictures.

    Well done, buddy….the work train kit has intrigued me for quite awhile and I have it sitting on my to-do shelf but….so many SWSM kits and so little time….and the clock seems to be ticking faster

    Mind blown! Outstanding!

    Steve,
    Thank you for including photos of the individual cars. The details and weathering are just exquisite. Each individual car is worthy of the great photos like you have shared. Plus for each of the individual cars photos of each of the car sides would be awesome to see. It looks like you upgraded to Kadee couplers and wheelsets for better operating.
    Hoping someday to see these same cars offered in O Scale by SWSM.

    Thanks Dave and Alco. I upgraded the coupler to Kadee Prototype ones and the trucks are Central Vlaay or Tahoe. I really like the Tahie Trucks,

    Wonderful job! Always loved these cars so much and many of these cars were sold in O Scale years ago.

    I missed out on the O scale back in the day....won't spend the ridiculous amounts on Evilbay. Yours look really good.....I plan on scratch building mine using a lot of the SW 3D details in the future...

    What an awesome set of models! So many of these cars inspired me to scratch build different MOW cars in 1/4" scale.
