You've built some real keepsakes there, Jazzfan! Have you made trains for all four, yet?

I have 4 five car trains using the Bachmann Jackson sharp excursion cars that are the right color. They have the ADA section and the rear platform but I need to add the offside panels and gates for the ADA section.

I also have to populate the cars with passengers and make end decals, all details that can be added without major tear downs so the cars can be used as is. yes they are 2 benches short of the true WDW cars but most people won't know or care. :wink:

Great work Jazz. I would love to see them in action if you are able to shoot video of them. Looking forward to seeing what you have planned for next.

Well I reviewed the beginning of this thread and its has been four years since I proposed building the WDW fleet from the Mantua Rogers 10 wheelers. I expected to be done in a year but like any project, what I would have built in year would have been Okay but Not really good enough. I still need to put the sides on the cars, add the cross head pumps, class flags and marker lights to the locomotives. But this project will take a back seat for now. I will try to get some video of the locos pulling their trains and I need to populate the seats.

As for what is next? I have a bunch of buildings waiting for a main street. I have an un-built castle in need of a Lake and forested Platform. I have a 4 wheel tender in need of an Ernest S Marsh. I need to finish Retlaw I and a new Lilly Belle Parlor car. I need to build two Forney's to complete the loco roster for Disneyland. I have some cars ready to be built into Holiday 4 (blue). Lots of things to do, so little time to do them all. And of course there is yard work, regular work, repair work, and the odd project for some else, so I can only take part of tonight off to post on the web page.

Happy Rails till the next project begins :D
