Bernie Thomas' article, "Scaling the A.F. Gondola", describes how to remove the trucks from the car, removing the K brake system, and removing the cast-on grab irons and ladder rungs. It then describes how to rebuild the various details. The article has a number of instruction-sheet-style drawings that accompany the text, to help clarify what to do. Includes a full materials list and a black-n-white photo of the model without the trucks.
