Subject: New Erie bay-window caboose in HO scale from JJL Models
"DSC_0190_resize.jpg" - image/jpeg, 1200x800 (24bit)

I'll have a full update on yesterday's ELHS meeting soon, but here's
something of major interest to modelers:

Joe Lofland of JJL Models was showing his newly-released resin kit of Erie's
C301-C350 bay-window cabooses. Created using rapid prototyping technology,
it's a highly-detailed body. The kit comes with everything except decals -
trucks and couplers are in there, a nicely-etched fret of add-on parts,
parts baggies and even some lead weight!

Joe measured the prototype C333 at Jim Thorpe, PA to get the dimensions for
the master, and it looks wonderful. I've taken a photo of the body shell
next to the Overland model for comparison - I'm happy that Joe got the
windows sizes correct (the Overland model has windows that are a bit
"squished" vertically).

You can order the car at:

Highly recommended!

- Paul

P.S. I have no monetary interest in JJL Models, I just think these are very
nice cabooses! :)
