Cement car rebuilds.

[e-paw]

I have installed the hatches and finished the hopper bottoms, minus the locking chains on all six cars.     Here 1/2 the fleet on a siding in Easton.

The biggest change that I made to the cars in the last few days are the cross braces on the car sides.     They are some .015 brass wire bent to shape with turnbuckles from Tichy trains. The cross braces and undersides still need paint. At this time only 3 cars have the cross braces installed, because I need to order more turnbuckles.
