    Howdy folks,

    Does anyone have a closeup or can suggest HO detail parts for baggage car vents, either turtle or clerestory roof? They look to be a square box on something.

    Best,

    Mike,

    I have used these two items to detail passenger cars. One style is a box ventilator, which I have placed on head -end cars with monitor roofs. The second style, I have used on turtle-back roofs. These are old Walthers' parts, and most likely unavailable; if you are good at making castings, I can lend them to you.

    Mike,

    I have lots of the monitor-style Walthers square vents and possibly a number of the arch-roof vents as well, that I would be willing to send to you gratis, if you will let me know your mailing address. Let me know how many you need. If anyone else needs vents, give me a holler.
