Sunny July 5th




As the 4th of July weekend draws to a close the sun came out and trains were at last able to run again. I finally did my second Army decal car and finished it up on the Fourth of July. This one follows our grandson and his unit the 32 nd Transportation Co. to Bagrad AFB Base in Afghanistan. He operates a PLS (Palletized Load System) vehicle and that is pictured on the car. I decided if Iwas going to have a military train I had better come up with a caboose so I commendered a Southern Pacific search light car and painted the yellow bin brown and added a US ARMY Logo as a start. We'll see, I may want to get a regular Army caboose. Go Army
