Discussion related to everything about model railroading, from layout design and planning, to reviews of related model tools and equipment. Discussion includes O, S, HO, N and Z, as well as narrow gauge topics. Also includes discussion of traditional "toy train" and "collector" topics such as Lionel, American Flyer, Marx, and others. Also includes discussion of outdoor garden railways and live steamers.

Let me know what mix you use to match the paint! BTW, You can get a Tool Box to shave down to size to add to the front walk. Custom bending the modified rail is easy enough.
This is not to "nit-pick",but I feel something is missing on the short hood, the ASC/Cab Signal box under the engineer's cab window.
Can't find my copy of J.Scala's book,"Diesels of the Sunrise Trail" to prove/disprove that feeling at this time.

Yep, that I have to scratchbuild.
Seen in the modeling article
Besides that I have to add the ditch lights which noone seems to have ( Details West #228 EMD pilot top ditch lights)
And wait for the other pair I ordered for the rear.
