Could you post photos?

I received a Comet 1 cab car and coach from Island Modelworks, and to be
honest, I was less than impressed for the price ($65+shipping for each).
It's just a carbody (with significant flash cleanup required) and a pair
of assemble-it-yourself white metal trucks - no wheelsets, either.

I haven't had a chance to compare the bodies to the prototype photos yet
- - been busy with work and family the past 2 weeks - but I hope to get
photos and a better review posted soon.


By the way, if you want to see resin models that I rate a solid "10",
take a look at:

A lot of their freight cars are appropriate for EL-timeframe layouts.
