    I am currently re-lettering a Lionel Texas Special observation car to make it a closer match to the one found on the Meteor. In fact, I am redoing several Lionel TS cars. The decals are all custom printed. There will even be a custom-made Meteor tail sign when completed.

    I got rid of the full diaphragms and replaced them with something quite close to the actual ones used.

    Very well done. Breakfast while riding down Dixon Hill, anyone? Count me in.

    When a model makes one think such thoughts, that's success indeed.

    Almost finished, plus I changed my mind and made this car 1551 OKLAHOMA CITY. (It was a close fit on the existing nameplate). I was marked up in OKC, so that is what I wanted to name it in the first place. KIRKWOOD 1255 is a coach. 02336385-C79A-4338-B3F1-1ED818289768.jpeg B1A9850C-EC18-41EC-8173-506128BE6EDA.jpeg 6DCB9646-1D4F-451A-A664-0E185EE76994.jpeg 674E77A2-0821-4442-A084-55B8B5131CDE.jpeg
