I just purchased a limited run HO Sacramento Northern Combine kit which sold during the 70's for $54.95 and came with a motorizing kit. At $15.00 I could not pass it up. Unfortunately the instructions on how to build the body were not included. Anyone have a set of instructions they could copy and send me? Expenses will be reimbursed.

thanks,
Joe

I picked this up at the Big E several years ago. It's a little different but someone is still making them. I don't recall who it was. It does make a perfectly straight cut.

Merry Christmas,
Joe

Your layout is beautiful and a work of art. Having recently found this thread I've been reading it back from the beginning and have a question. I noticed that you glue the roof cards to your structures and then shingle. I thought the recommendations were to shingle, trim and then glue the cards on. Could you explain the advantage of your procedure?

thanks,
Joe

Great layout being built. I saw it on Youtube where there are several videos posted. I believe it's the same layout. Here is a link to one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGdkbKwcv2g.

Kit Building / Stripwood

Hello,

This has probably been asked before but I tried a search and came up empty. I have been building a few craftsman kits and have been finding some missing parts. I have been buying some oldies and it's understandable that there would be missing pieces but sometimes it's a brand new factory sealed kit that is missing something or maybe it doesn't have enough of the product to complete the kit. It's no big deal and I understand that there are slip ups from time to time. Right now I need some wood to build the rungs of a ladder on a Campbell water tank.  I would like to put in an order for supplies maybe to Northeastern so when these shortfalls occur I have what I need on hand to continue.

I'm thinking regular dimensional lumber like 2x4, 2x6, etc. some scribed siding but maybe someone here might have a list or suggestions that would help.

thanks in advance
Joe
