Over the weekend I finished up a few more engines to go along with my Port Of Tillamook Bay #101. Some of the engines still need a few detail parts like plows and horns, but those will have to wait until I can get to the hobby shop. Also the real engines lost their light kits over the years, I...

I am looking to make the 1996 SD-40-2 UP Olympic units. My question is what length nose do these engines have? I know there "snoot" nose, but wondering if there 116' or 123'. I will probably use Athearn engines since they will run with my UP 3300 and 3593 which are Athearn RTR. Thanks in...
