N SCALE:eek: :eek: I must have missed that some where. My hats off to you TiVoPrince. We will surely need photos now:D Dan

some more

and now some shots in a work in progress. I started with an Athearn SD40-2 an replaced the radiator, nose, cab, cab-subbase, inertial air filter and paper air filter with Cannon parts. All the light gray parts are Cannon, the cab is one of Cannon's early runs before gray plastic.

TiVo, I would like to see some in-progress shots. I thought I'd share some of my in-progress shot of a GATX SD38-2. Frist a shot of the prototype.
