Amtrak Street Running

[TheJuggalohomie4life]

how did you rebuild the metroliner

[Acela82]

Not much work, a new front door from an amfleet car, diapragms, windows from an amfleet car, a bit paint and Microscale decals

[TheJuggalohomie4life]

can you use a amfleet car insted

[Acela82]

Not easily. The Bachmann Metroliner and the Walthers Amfleet have a different shape, so the cab wouldn´t fit so good.

it looks like stop motion

[WarrenPace]

Next video you do, could you show a push video with the cab car?

[Trackagerights]

Quick, name that caboose?

[AuburnRails]

Its standard code 83 track covered with cardboard...

Nice job on the cab car Acela82. I've metalized a 4 car HO set with Alclad II Metalizer. I clearcoated them, which dulled them slightly to resemble stainless steel. I'm refinishing them into the 1968 Penn Central scheme. I posted my photo results on the Kalmbach Model Railroader Forum earlier this year. Check it out. Now I have to paint the cab sides white and make up the PC "worm" decals. It's so ironic that Bachmann was the only company that produced plastic HO Metroliners.
