Elizabeth is a perfectionist and when our white sled bus arrived, she commented that the Christmas Tree on the roof was nice but drab. This bothered her over the past few months, so last week, she tackled this project. The green is much more vibrant, she flocked the tree, and added color to the rope ties. Quite a contrast. What do you think? Before:

Paula and I were just admiring Elizabeth’s beautiful work.
Of course, this is exactly what happens, even to friends and business partners when you deal with ole C T Balsam. Substandard merchandise and he obviously would not even provide a replacement.
Thank you again Elizabeth for helping to make Christmas beautiful in the Great White North.

Great work! The truck reminds me of Fred Astaire’s mail truck in the animated movie “Santa Claus is Coming To Town”... Tom  |

Looks great.
You should try replacing the spare tires with wreaths.

Elizabeth asked me to say thank you for your kind and generous comments. She loves projects for our layout.

Very nice job. Reminded me of the tracked vehicles used on Mount Washington Observatory.

We have all four of the sled buses in this series. The last one is on it's way from Australia.
Now, the white, red, and soon to reach us green one are up to snuff. We don't like the roof treatment on the yellow version, so I have ordered a new load for the roof. Next up is to light them if this is possible.
