Wow! Great stuff! Here's GP60M that I made from JnJ shell and Atlas SD60 series loco parts...... GP60B that I made from a LL GP60 and Atlas SD60 series parts..... SD75I that I made from an Atlas SD60M and a Kato SD90MAC cab.... Russ
Yep, the GN caboose decal sheet. Here's a counterpart of GN X21: My first caboose 'bash project! Prototype-police-types need not look any further... Walther's ballast hoppers:
Russ, your skills amaze me! That GP60M any easier to build now that LL made a '60? What mech did you put under each? Wow, a lashup of a 60M, B, and a few 4-axle high-horsepower GE's would be a sweet consist with the ATSF's hottest train..
Thanks, Hemi! Yes, the LL release would make building a GP60M easier....mostly because of the fact that the LL unit comes with handrails. Of course, the toughest part is fabricating the cab, which went like this.... The GP60M above rides on an Atlas GP40-2 mechanism and the GP60B rides on the stock LL mechanism.

Before the GP60M, Santa Fe ordered the GP50. Here's my Kato GP50, from Santa Fe's first order, with the rounded blower duct.

Tony, Those are some great looking cabeese. That ex-Baldwin caboose is a very unusual model. Was the prototype a one of a kind or were there more.
