Be sure to stay warm and safe if you are living in the sub zero temps of the midwest.
That repaint is the HW Triple Arch Wagon, yes? Preiser # 22153, formally red.I will usually mock up a scene before the actual scenery is complete. I use these photographs to finish my scenes and to get a 'feel' for the end result. Such is the case with this, as the roadway and surrounding ground covers remain unfinished. Modelers may recognize that the No.34 wagon at left center, is a Preiser model repainted with Sparks lettering and pneumatic tires.

I really enjoy it when I buy a collection. Sometimes opening those packages and finding the quality of the work is so good it is better than Christmas.Back to HO scale. I purchased a large collection of HO circus models built by a man named Watson, in the collection were about a dozen scratch built stock cars, 30 flats and 15 coaches. I have begun to upgrade the cars by completing the end bracings and handrails and re-lettering the cars for Trapino Bros. Circus. These are the only orange cars in the Trapino collection. (The 'T' pins are there because the track was still drying and they hold the track in place)

I have a few of those, I wanna start adding some details ala Johnny.And speaking of stock cars, here are 2 very recognizable specimens. The #44 James E. Strates elephant car and the #49 Hagenbeck Wallace horse car. These were also part of the Walther's Great Circus Train release from years ago.
