    for Gunnar Haeberer in Germany. This ex-Penncentral loco just got roughly patched with some CR markings and a couple of nice Conrail blue engine doors.
    Model "lost" it's dynamic brake and "gained" details

    Another great work! I grew up a half mile from the NYC to the PC to the Conrail to the now NS tracks. Your model is very accuarate in my mind.

    Here now the Z version of an ex Erie-Lackawana GP35 with Conrail reporting marks. "Standard" super detailing + closed pilot + MU-Boxes + E-cabinet (right side) and hump behind the cab and of course custom decals and light weathering

    NICE!

    Even though it's not for me and I'm not a CR rail-fan... this is one fine looking GP-35!

    Very nice work, Love the change overs! Conrail is an underated rail line IMO. I would love to own that last one. Do you do any work for other members?

    I was pretty young when the conrail consolidation look place. It was interesting seeing the different liverys come into the Penn Central yard. I especially like the EL paint scheme. I have a set of PC U30c's and a EL SD45 and U23b? I like to run together. I had a CR SD45 but it was stolen. (in HO)
