East Chenango

Railfanning today at the East Chenango yard when I spotted this car being switched. Only got off a few shots before it was pushed behind another cut of cars.

Not a sticker, it's a limited run printing by Micro Trains.
A few are listed here, but they're all shown as 'sold out'

Is it a sticker on this model or is it hand painting? Nice take on theme.

Great stuff Art! It never occurred to me that models were made complete with graffiti. One learns something every day!

Yup, this is on my own model railroad, the Delaware, Chenango & Western. Car is one of several special run graffiti cars I picked up over the years... first time out of the box for this one. Couldn't bring myself to weather it for this picture, so I just faded the chroma a bit to 'age' the artwork.
Used the 40-150 w EX-25 for this shot.

great piece of double "O" graffiti, was this in a store or do you own this one?

Two arts in one plus you is three! You into model railroading? Clever take on the theme for sure.
