Athearn Blue box
I was setting here thinking Most of us at one time in our model train life's have built a Athearn blue box model. How about we do up a post for a build up on one. I have two new in the box athearn cars i need to build so i think i am going to start a build post on it as i build it. If you have one please start up a build post on yours also. Athearn Blue box cars came as a kit and are not hard to build so if i can do it anyone can.
More to come as i get started on this weekends project

I will have to check TM, I think the only Athearns cars I have left are my Milw. ones, all the others have been built, up for sale or sold!! I know I could post an already built one.

This has to be one of the longest car kits that Athearn makes. It is a 86' long four plug door box car for Milw. Rd..

That car certainly won't look right on a 18" radius curve, that is for sure!
