I’d be interested in one for myself.

Mike, We talked about these before. I'll still take 3 when/if you get them going.

That is amazing, if you ever make that I'm in.

A few of you know, this is on my short list to 3d model and print. I did complete the car side last year, and decided I would prefer to make a complete car rather than attach a car side to an inaccurate donor core. I sort of stopped because I wasn't sure how to model the complex curves of the roof ends, but that has been resolved. If you can be patient, maybe I can knock it out after I finish my major caboose project. (painting and detailing a bunch of brass CF/CH/C3 cabins)

I did a couple test prints, but didn't support it well enough which led to the close corner warping that you see below. 

However, you can see that it prints very well overall, and with better supports this would be a non-issue.

Hi, 

Thanks, I'll poke around for M70 kits. Don't get me wrong, I'd love a real model but a stand-in must do for some equipment you can't really buy as it's too rare. Lol if anyone wants to get rid of one ... I've got some K1s and K2s that would be happy to pull them.

I've leaned enough through the society to try and get a better balance of mail/storage vs. express.

David,

If a stand-in will do, you might watch E-bay for a Walthers 7831.  It was an M1, but the lapse of 60 or so years has rendered it "crude" by today's standards.

Hi, 

Thanks for the info. Only done in brass probably means it would take ten years to even find one, hmmm it looks a bit like the PRR M70. Perhaps I'll use that as a a stand in.

Thanks!

The M1 has been dine in brass.

Hi Society,

Were there any N&W RPOs done in HO? Specifically the M1 or something that was not a combination RPO?

Thanks for sharing the knowledge,

David Baker
