New castings have arrived for a couple of our popular Resin Car Works kits, so these are being re-introduced. The mini-kit for Pullman-Standard “Carbuilder” corrugated boxcar ends. This was the mini-kit offered at the 2017 RPM Chicagoland meet.

I’m recovering from a busy RPM Chicagoland weekend in Lisle, IL. The days seemed to blur right by like a speeding train. I took some notes to offer a summary. If you haven’t attended a railroad prototype modeler (RPM) meet, I encourage you to take action and attend a meet near you. The RPM event calendar is updated frequently with dates and links to these events around the country.
A major goal of the Resin Car Works blog is to inspire modelers to build their kit collection. We feature works that share tips and techniques to increase your skill set. We also strive to make this site a resource. The RCW Helpful Links page offers connections to files, smaller vendors, and additional sites for inspiration.
Resin Car Works lead minion Frank Hodina has finished working on an HO scale Fruit Growers Express reefer. This project uses a mini-kit that will be given to a couple hundred RPM Chicagoland attendees next week.
