Here is the Paint job on the unit. I opted for the no multimark scheme. Now It needs to be weathered!

This is the painting in progress, and the locomotive ready for decals.

Here are the changes done to the skirting. Very easy to do! To This I find the Rail Nipper tools to be perfect for this part of the job. Here is the start of the nose headlights. I just added styrene to the front of the nose and took off the marker lights. Here is the...

Rather than wait for someone else to do this project, ive decided to take the plunge. Here is the goal (and it can be applied to other roads as well) Taken from Trianweb http://www.trainweb.org/galt-stn/cproster/main.htm This is how I decided I would should start on this journey: An...

thanks for the info Steve..... WHERE ARE THOES RED BARNS?? Cheers

What is the criteria for model of the month? Just curious. Cheers

I dont think the model would benefit greatly with the reapplicaiton of grabirons. What to you think? The front and back railings are from an atlas SD60 (from a SOO line unit I am currently painting and will finish when I locate decals). They look good. I found the Kaslo ones to be a little...

I was unhappy with the color of my SD40-2F so I did a repaint today. Here is the before Here is my reference photo And here is my new loco....CP SD40-2F #9007 This is more my style. I think it looks great with my SD40-2. Cheers From G to N eh!

nscalesteve. I just filed the tank and made a 'sqare notch', and used styrene to make steps. CA holds it together. I also realized that I have taken NO photos of the right side of my loco, so this is for you steve. Cheers

WHAT!?!?!?! Mike, are you KITBASHING NOW? Holy CR@%. Mike is no longer a shake and bake railroader. Nscalesteve......WHERE ARE THE REDBARNS????? I am so eager to see them. Best of luck. I once built one from styrene in HO but it took a dive :(. Mike I would love to see 5 or so of...

Nscalesteve...I would be happy to lend a hand, but I just got in from my vacation and if the 'spirit' moves me, I will look up thoes Min By E numbers for ya tomorrow. FYI...IMHO, USA trains is not as well made as an Aristo product. I found the wiring job done at the factory to be sub par and...

Here is the Sd40-2 after reapaint. It came as an Amtrak. The modifications done are: -moved headlight from cab to nose -added bell to cab -added anticlimber -modified handrails to work with anticlimber -added ditchlights and rewired original headlights to work with ditchlights -added 3...

CN Wide Cab...NOT CP of course, including ditchlights! Cheers

note the removal of the horns (with a 3 chime horn going in when I find one) and the change of location of the number boards. Ive never had to fill in such big holes before. Thank god for putty. The strips on the nose and back were made by cutting masking tape to 4.5 mm strips and...

This is a paint job I did for my brother. UNFORTUNATELY he is in to G scale. Here is a before and after picture. The first one I painted 6 years ago. And this one I finished today Cheers

That looks great. Perhaps we are a little to self critical. Did BCRail have uboats? I dunno Cheers

I painted them myself. SD90. would like a few? That'll be 1,000,000.00 Canadian dollars, or 5 of your American Dollars. Caboose #4346049 was sold to the SD90 sub division a few weeks back. It seems that its in good hands. Cheers

Good paint job, but a little clean for me. Youll find that a little Poly-S dirt on the trucks go a long way in making them look a little bigger. Cheers

Matthyro, thak you for your kind words. Of course this is indeed N scale. Cheers

Here are a few of my locos and rolling stock that I have weathered. Please share your experiences and critics. Sorry to my Dial-up friends. Cheers
