repainted Minitrains passenger cars

[Jeff Schumaker]

A while back, I purchased a Minitrains passenger train set, with brown cars. The color didn't appeal to me, so I repainted them to match other passenger cars I have built. Here is the result:

I also purchased interiors for the coach and combine from Myner Models. I have yet to add passengers or coal for the stove.

Here is a shot of the repainted cars on the Great Lake HOn30 layout at a show last month.

Nice job. Did you paint only the sides or also the roof? Did you use an airbrush?

Gerhard,

Thanks for the reply. I was beginning to wonder if the lack comments indicated that my efforts were not up what was expected from this group.

The roof was left in the original color. The sides were brush painted using Polyscale paint.
