ROUTE ROCK 54' covered hopper in HO Scale
Title:  ROUTE ROCK 54' covered hopper in HO Scale
Description:  I painted and modeled the Rock's PS2 54' covered hopper with the "ROUTE ROCK" slogan in the 801000 series. The "ROUTE" should be against the first rib but because Microscale decals aren't quite the right length I had to compromise and move it over some to the "ROUTE ROCK" would line up on the side of the car where it should be. After the ROCK shutdown a lot of these cars went to the C&NW.
