Thought you fellows would enjoy this:
Just got it in today. Paid through the nose for it, but I got it nevertheless. Still has the stock (and incorrect) silver undercarraige and trucks - that will be attended to in good time, along with the plow.
Also thought I would post a photo of it with the IHP F40PHL-2, though the IHP model remains an example of my cheap modeling abilities of 5 years ago (and a disastrous set of decals which flaked off). I intend to re-do it properly in the upcoming future, but I am hesitant to do so until I can locate someone who can produce a quick run of the tri-stripe and squiggle logos. Might swap to an Atlas GP38-2 chassis as well - the Athearn drive always ran like crap.
Take care,
-Kurt
