Workbench Wednesday: Quick Fix

 


CN 386479 is now CN 386473.  The newly numbered car will go to the CP Siding in Brockville and head north the next time a Canadian Pacific train makes it way down the Smith Falls spur. 

    A few years ago, I bought a couple Accurail CN Hoppers at a train show.  Accurail often only creates one number for each car they make in a production run. The company offers car number decals to take care of car number duplication.  I ordered a set of these decals over my Christmas vacation (they arrived in three days).  This week I applied a patch to the last digit of one of my hoppers.  The process took about 10 minutes.  I still need to apply Dullcoat, but I'm waiting for the Micro Sol to dry.
