....the spot for the D/B housing, a la' Delaware & Hudson....
I'm thinking that I'll have four of these rebuilds, two RS and two RSD's, intended for branchline service.

....and one set of these, two in a set, to make one unique...

....should be fun!

The Sky's the limit matey!
Pain in the tail pipe, finding grilles for the D/B housing, must be something suitable somewhere....
Gonna get a couple of Alco RS-32 bodies from Atlas, use the short hoods for the Milwaukee Road inspired RSC-25's, I'll find some use for the left overs later on....lol

Just bought four of these from Atlas...
Will be used for my M&W's Milwaukee Road RSC-25 lookalikes, I'll be
using my RSD-4/5's instead for RSC-2's...
In due course, I'm sure that I'll find something useful for rest...lol...seeing that
I'll only be using the short hoods.
