Barry's Model Railroad

This is an accounting of my attempts at model railroads N scale and HO or OO. I find it to be a lot of fun. I concentrate my efforts on The New York Central, Ann Arbor, Pere Marquette, Chesapeake and Ohio as it relates to the Pere Marquette, Michigan Central Railroads and my own Salt Creek Railroad. I am also interested in the Tuscola and Saginaw Bay Railway, the Great Lakes Central Railroad, CSX, Norfolk Southern, Union Pacific, and BNSF. You are welcome to give me advice.

Ann Arbor Centerflow Hopper

Today I tried to create an Ann Arbor centerflow hopper I used the decals that I bought when I was making the caboose. I had to create the road number on my printer. I think it turned out respectable. I painted over an Ann Arbor centerflow hopper from an earlier era. I tried to find an example on line but I could not find one. So the end result is as close as I can come without an example to work from.
