I created a few basic car kits. They are CNC cut from 7/32 acrylic. They were all cut based on drawings in "A Century plus Ten" D&RGW book. My seemingly endless supply of acrylic went fast creating these so supplies are rather limited.
D&RGW 40 foot Reefer - Basic shell available in scribed and unscribed. Kit contains bottom, 2 ends, 2 sides, two roof panels and under roof braces. Roof is inset into the body shell due to the thickness of the plastic. (first pic shows a prototype which illustrates why the roof was changed to be inset) This allows a proper thickness roof covering to extend over the body.

D&RGW 30 foot car - Basic shell available in scribed and unscribed. Kit contains bottom, 2 ends, 2 sides, two roof panels and under roof braces. Roof is inset into the body shell due to the thickness of the plastic. This allows a proper thickness roof covering to extend over the body. Usable to create reefers, boxcars, work, commissary and other cars of the same length.
Same car as above but shorter!
D&RGW Caboose - Basic shell available in scribed and unscribed. Kit contains bottom, 2 ends with separate CNC paneled doors, 2 sides, two roof panels, under roof braces, cupola sides,ends and roof. Window opening corners will need to be squared as they are cut with a rotary bit.
