B&O Wagon Top Boxcar Construction
Page 5
February 2000 - June 2003

The following are images of the B&O Wagon Top Boxcar's Construction. I would like to thank Fred Bouffard for all the help and direction he has given me in this project, without him, the results would never have been so spectacular...

Side view of the completed B&O WagonTop Boxcar

This car was hand lettered by Jimmy Fenton of Mattituck, Long Island. No stencils or dry transfers were used, all lettering is free-hand.

The car features a fully detailed interior of stained wood, complete with scratch built wooden container loads

The WagonTop rides upon scratch built (from bar, no castings used) Buckeye Trucks. The completed project including trucks took about 3 1/2 years to complete.
