Hello, 10 years ago we kitbashed this unit... Kato U30C (ex Rock Island) and Atlas U25B rear end section... The handrails section where the cab was still makes us a little headache but the shop forces will find a solution... Enjoy it, will be BN green soon! http://www.n-a-s-a.de/pic/bahn1.jpg http://www.n-a-s-a.de/pic/bahn2.jpg http://www.n-a-s-a.de/pic/bahn3.jpg http://www.n-a-s-a.de/pic/bahn4.jpg http://www.n-a-s-a.de/pic/bahn5.jpg LIMA FP45...Life-Like E8A mechanism...runs excellent! http://www.n-a-s-a.de/pic/bahn6.jpg Tim
Just a little painting this weekend inspired by last weekends railfaning. This is one I took pictures of late last year and have been meaning to do. The blowout sale on Walthers GP38-2's made it hard to pass up. It started as a PLE unit because the undec offerings didn't have the right combination of tank, brakes and trucks all in the same unit. The railings are just loosely applied right now. I still need to make the decals and attend to some other details. It will eventually look like this. Not sure if I want to do the grafitti of not.
Nicely done, and very similar to some of the diesels I see on DGNO here in Sherman. RailGenerica is definitely into minimal lettering on their locomotives.
I got one shot that made it to Railpictures at this time. If anymore makes it ill post em here. http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=237790&nseq=0
A place to visit if you get to Cape Cod: They did not have the trains out when we visited as they were expecting heavy showers. This is a not so little "Country Store" with a gaden railroad and a "maze". Enjoy Brewster Store: The Strawberry Patch Garden Railroad And no, I have no affiliation.
Question about "WFF": Are prototype images welcome or discouraged? No biggie to me either way. I just don't want to faux paux.
