Re: (erielack) DL&W/EL N-Scale passenger cars

Greg:
    I got that 3 car set about 10 years ago at a shop locally.  If I 
remember right, a tavern lounge car came in the pack which is close.  All 
this talk about these cars got me inspired this weekend and I started 
cutting the diner apart.  I cut in the window quite easily and found myself 
shaving a lot of the molded on detail off.  I have to strip the paint off. 
I think the car is going to look pretty nice when it is done.  Glad Paul T. 
did the passenger car decals.  There was a big hole in the N-scale decal 
market for a while there.
