    Talkin to Colonel about who he uses in Aussie to paint locos... Well he uses some dude in usa..

    Anyone have an idea of someone in Melbourne (or anywhere really not fussed who or where, but want a good job!) that could paint an E8 to SP Bloodnose and do some detailing? I realise I'll have to pay for the service and postage.

    Lookin at Espee's site, Southern Pacific had only 1 E-8. But the rest were E-9's.

    Can someone tell me the difference in them? If its one had 8 rivets and the other had 9, Im not that worried, IM in it for fun more than rivet counting!

    I can highly recommend Jason as I've seen his work, Jason is a member of Sydney N scale club and was probably a member when you were there I'm not sure.

    Thanks Paul,
    Thats good enough for me. Could have been in the club at the same time, there were a few around that you never caught a name of.. ;) ~

    Interesting Photo, the one of the crash scene.. I think thats the first one of its kind Ive seen.. Mostly freight trains or passenger trains doing their thing, but none of crash scenes..

    Well done Jason.
    Jason, if you dont mind, ICQ me on 1038488.. Ive added you and tried last night, but no reply [​IMG]

    Thanks again people.
