It is AC&F's Center-Flow, which had side ladders. When the series was changed to BN 437000-437399, they got the large logo. This model is a logoless version that the poster photographed in 1998. The model was created based on it and the drawings published in the July 1997 issue of RMC magazine. The starting point is a McKean plate C CF-4650 early version. The body of the car was shortened by cutting out the center part. The inlet hatches were scratch-built from plastic material. The side beads quarter round, the cages at the ends were converted from two sets of Detail Associates parts. Plano Apex slot type roofwalks, Model Flex paint, home-made & MicroScale decals. |
