Very interesting and enlightening post....Hi Marty,<br /><br />Very interesting and enlightening post. You are not the type of person to throw a model or manufacturer under the bus, and also have a very good skill set, so your analysis of the kit is very useful and eye opening. I too own this kit and have been carting it around for years in case I built an Erie module in lieu of my usual C&O interests. I purchased it ages ago at a meet and apparently paid 30 dollars. I found it intriguing as I had seen few resin structure kits at the time. A some point I did some test fitting and was also put off by all the junk resin but did not move on putting it together at that time. While I am not yet prepared to junk it I think this kit will remain in the box as your verdict seems pretty definitive. I may go look for it and take out the parts and see how it looks. I appreciate your review and all your posts. <br /><br />Best Gerard<br /><br />Gerard J. Fitzgerald<br />Crozet, VirginiaGerard J.
