Quench Car and Charging Larry - Part 1

Well I finally made it to my favorite hobby shop yesterday to pick-up the paint that I needed for the Hulett’s. Soon the painting will begin. While I was there I noticed that they had one of the Walthers Quench Car and Larry kits for sale. I've seen them before but had always thought it was rather over priced. For whatever reason they had this kit marked down rather nicely, nice enough that I bought it. I spent last night assembling both the Larry and quench car. Much to my surprise both kits are very well done, they each have great detailing. The “Larry” car has hatch detailing underneath and electrical conduit runs going from structure to structure. To this point the only addition that I have made to this kit was a lamp above the stairs. The quench car also has great detailing. The kit comes with Proto 2K metal wheels and metal couplers. Once the kit was assembled I added the various included wire grabs and brake wheel. There is no under frame detailing, I’m not too worried about it because in most cases you’ll never notice it. As you can tell by the photos, both kits are nicely done. There was also an additional section of over head conveyor included in the box. For those of you who bought the original Walther coke works kit which didn’t include these items, this kit is worth the purchase.
