custom built from Agostino Palpacelli in France. After a long waiting period due to the bad weather in Europe I finally received my new etched detail parts so I could finish off this project, others to follow in the next couple of days... This is one of the few NS SD70M with flared radiators and a more square shaped cabin. The loco is my most detailed SD70 so far and started as a stock AZL UP SD70M with following major changes: -new cab (Phase II) square shaped, but still with "teardrop" front windows (in opposite to SD70ACe) -new fine detailed stainless steel see-through fan plates and fans -grab irons, lift rings, super detailed pilot with MU-Hoses, MU-Cable, cut lever, brake wheel (most details new design, not BLMA) -wipers from windscreen removed and replaced with correct 2 wipers per window -antennas -custom decals and painting, condition as new
Waow , another superb job, 2011 starts very well.I take the opportunity of this quick reply post to wish all the best at all the Z scalers for 2011. eltiti1
Gerd WOW if you can do that in z then there is no excuse for me not to detail my N locos :thumbs_up::thumbs_up:
Fantastic job! She looks absolutely amazing. One question...how much!? Anyone out there ever see one of these done in Conrail or CSX for z-scale?
