Please use a web hosting site (like photobucket) to store pictures so you can post them here, using attachments makes it hard to view the pictures when you have to scroll to see them. Seeing comparisons of models is hard to see with attachments too.

I can't help but notice a glaring oversight in that no one mentions the decal or shows a photo of the decal on the rear of the A, B or C trailers.
It might be time to start my "Bucket List."

I've always thought the decals on these models were an attractive feature. So I went looking through my photobucket to see if I had any images showing the decals at all, but alas, no. I did find this nice line up though, so thought I'd share it anyway.

Re: Casting #23
Very nice J - perhaps the decals did not fix as well to the metallic green paint?
