Ralph's cabooses thread
#29
Progress update. I enlarged the small windows to match them with the large ones and blocked in the middle windows so there are now two on each side as on the prototype. Cutting these windows with an exacto knife was a challenge for me but they seem square and the same size as the originals. I used Green Putty on the seams of the blocked off windows and sanded them until they looked smooth to the eye and the touch. After spraying some primer I see some rough spots that will need more sanding. I also need to scribe window sills for the enlarged windows. This part of the project is a bit putzy but the Tyco caboose looks more like an N8 now.
