Simple Mold Release Removal Technique on Postwar Lionel’s 2023 Shell

Over the years there’s always folks asking the masses what this funky white waxy substance is & how it can be removed. If you’ve ever asked this question yourself, & or have already gone about the process of removing it- you’d know that the answer to the preferred method of removal is to use a Heat Gun or a Hair Dryer. Using that particular method can be quite tricky, as well as create problems that you didn’t have before.
I get asked how I go about it all the time, which my reply is always “I plan on creating a post/ clip specifically to share just what I do”. Well Folks, Today is THE Day…
Hope this little clip is of help to those that may need it.
From Eli here at FRV…
Thanks for Watching
& Happy Railroading, Y’all!!!

This project has been a long time coming. Though long it is chalked full of virtually every single process it takes/ took to bring new life back into these once shabby looking passenger cars. The clip gives a better description than I could ever write, so I’ll let it speak for itself. I hope Everyone enjoys this new series, & please don’t hesitate to reach out & ask questions if needed.

Howdy Train Folk! While some of y’all may remember seeing this beautiful ABA Set, I’ve now added a rear dual motored powered frame I just finished rebuilding to the 2354T shell. Creating an all powerful NYC ABBA Engine. Since you’ve last seen, I’ve rebuilt both the 2322’s, the 2331, this now rear powered 2354, & a 2245 I just finished up today. And prior that I’ve built a Smoking & Whistling Pr...

I wondered if I had the matching Tender to my newly rebuilt 2025 (which those of you who don’t follow elsewhere have yet to see). This is part of a project I’m working on, which I’ll share in completion here when done- w/ a few last final steps. So, I have maybe 100 Tenders. Had no clue if I even had this one, but figured I’d bound to have it in the collection, somewhere. Literally the first bo...

This Engine & Tender have been waiting around well over 10 years (maybe even 15 ) for their turn to roll into The Service Yard. After recently realizing I had all the right parts on hand to fix the front truck assembly on the Tender, I made Haste… And let me say: Was it ever Worth the Wait! Hope Y’all Enjoy The Rebuild! Lemme know if you have any questions/ comments (as always on this or any Po...

Ten Tanker Cars Stripped n’ Cleaned

These Ten Tanker Cars have waited patiently well over a decade for their opportunity to Ride the Rails of FRV. As w/ any engine/ rolling stock/ etc, not a single thing hits the track till they’ve been thoroughly gone through & made as new as possible. It’s a lovely site to see the crud knocked off the wheels & everything dust free gliding down the tracks. It’s been a long time I’ve waited to ta...
