More work on the caboose, add some lettering and check to make sure the seats are secure.


07/23/07 - Time to add some lettering to make the caboose look like a real Union Pacific Railroad caboose.


07/23/07 - The type is printed on paper and I cut through the paper and the masking tape behind the paper. The tape gets peeled off to expose the area that will be painted.


07/23/07 - Once all the tape has been cut and peeled the paint is applied.


07/23/07 - A second coat is added after about 1 hour.


07/23/07 - The other side of the caboose had a blemish that I repaired. That blemish area needed to be painted yellow.


07/23/07 - The tape peeled off just right, notice I didn't wait for it to dry.


07/23/07 - Tape comes off better when the paint is still wet. Now I can look at the bolts for the seats tomorrow.
