No this is not HO. This is an 0n30 2-6-6-2, that i picked up at a train show one month ago. i know that my first post said something about Conrail, but i've tossing around the idea of doing 0 scale narrow gauge for some time. It would also allow me to be able to scratchbuild more wooden structures, which i like doing. i also own 2 more 0n30 locos with a decent amount of rolling stock.

Tru-Color Paints

I am working on four more locomotives for my freelance railroad. I had painted the previous completed models in Polly S CSX dark future paint. I have found an equivalent shade of CSX dark future with True Color paints.

My question is, since I have only used Polly S, Floquil, and Tamiya, how is the finish and does it air brush well and what paint does it compare best to.

I have used up most of my Polly S and Floquil stock so now I must find another option. Thanks.

When I go on to a manufacturer's website or look up parts in a smaller catalog or ask a rare hobby shop to order detail parts,   I'm finding less and less available or listed as discontinued.  Is the Hobby dying?  Thanx Thom...
