This board is the place where questions and information specific to MODELING the Reading Company, its equipment and operations can be shared - questions like "What was the window arrangement of AF Tower in Alburtis?" and "What color paint do YOU use to paint the Reading's cream-and-brown buildings?" We also want to hear about YOUR Reading modeling projects!

That IS a really cool LOd. I think Mitch from Maine did one in HO a while back. Amongst all of my other half-started cars, I've been scheming for years, on a way to bash one in HO myself. These "pillow top" hoppers as I've always thought of them, are real stand outs. After seeing your model here Butch, I think I've hatched a plan to get a fairly good representation of one out of a roundhouse covered hopper.
