Hi
before I went to 0f12, I start to build an 0e (0n30) Railcar, and I'm about to finish it. First idea was to use a Fleischmann Magic Train coach, but then I build it completely from scratch. Design was made step by step while I build, and so some pieces I must make two times  Chassis is from a german 4axle H0 switcher.
Here is the pic:

I like it, those front windows give it a certain attitude.

I imagine will be in green...
Maybe this green  ? This was the first "mockup" with the original Fleischmann coach, now I want to use it as trailer, and the railcar will get the same color:
 
I'm thinking about some thin beige lines...

Michael,
I really like the effect you have created. It will look great as a Rail Car and trailer.
I would go for a deep red with beige lines.
Cheers
Pete

Thanks to all for the kind words :Woohoo:
Green or dark red, thats the question, or like George W. says: Everyone has a decision to make.... :Hmm:However, at first I still must do some work on the body, prepare the glazing, handrails, stairs etc. Stay tuned...

Breakin news
Martin from Kalles german forum like the railcar so much, as he build his own - and he was faster as me  :
http://www.kostenloses-forum.com/board/triebwagenprojekt-,nxu,01642644nx1878,t,1931,start,30.html#15648
So I hurry, and here is the next step:
Decision of color was easy, because I hadn't a suitable green on hand... I will still make a thin yellow line under the windows and a black line at the bottom including the steps. Roof is not fixed also. And who had his greasy fingers on the front

It is a honor to have someone like your work so much that they copy it!
Of course I'm proud, and I like the "little blue brother" . We have planned a meeting of the railcars... maybe in September at KS Modelling Days in Stromberg.

Nearly finished:
To Kalles meeting in Stromberg are only few days left... so I keep up the work on the railcar to finish it. The yellow and black stripes are wet transfer decals, Horns and exhaust I made from round acryl bar and brass wire, wipers and doorknobs are commercial parts. Driver figure and lettering still left, and maybe some bodges are to hide
