Ohio Public Service No. 21 (Niles 51 ft Combine)

I received the first test print of the Niles 51 ft Combine and painted it in the colors of the Ohio Public Service.

Many Thanks to Ryan Hoover who convinced me to build this nice car and helped much with documentation.

The car is posed on Taylor trucks, the prototypical Peckham truck frames are ready, but I have to order new NWSL Stanton drives.

The "Providence" fender will turn black, also soon.
