Maintenance-of-Way Modeling

Add some visual interest to your model railroad with these maintenance-of-way projects. Frequent Model Railroader contributor M.R. Snell leads things off by showing how he added a maintenance-of-way shop scene to his HO scale Conrail layout. Then Al Warren shows how he modified a 40-foot boxcar body to match a prototype trackside shed on the Chicago & North Western. Cody Grivno rounds out the collection with four MOW projects from the HO scale Milwaukee, Racine & Troy, including step-by-step instructions on assembling a white-metal tie crane kit.
