    Pedro Rezende,
    great website. I've been glued since I'd discovered this thread.
    Thanks for supplying us with the photo and information. I hope to have some fun with what I learned in the future.

    Friends,

    I think We can develop a HO railroad project for these locos. We can exchange information and photos of our models. I can get every photo of details needed to build the models. We can open a thread here in Train Board to exchange our experiences.
    In my opinion, the easiest model to be done is BB40-9W, because it uses the same carbody. We just need to cut the fuel tank a bit. The most difficult one is BB40-2, because we need to enlarge de frames, cut the hoof, change the hood doors, etc. This loco suffered a lot of modifications.

    yes please, I am interested as well. I've started once a project (one of so many...) with a Kato C44-9W and four Microtrains Z scale F trucks... I'am very interested to get more information about this engines (also the BB40T-2), thank you...

    are you using TT scale drives/trucks (12mm) for this H0 project ? N scale drives/trucks (9mm) would be to narrow I guess...

    Hi friends,

    I opened a thread in HO section called "Let´s model a EFVM BB36-7" to share information on how to build this unit. Please, visit it and give your opinion and share a bit of you experience in scratch.
    Thanks

    Pedro
