Line 1200 HP switcher

[danpik]

Here is the latest project on the bench. Pretty much ready for the paint shop. It will be painted in the Erie RR colors.

I discovered something wrong in the instructions while assembling this and decided to post it here in case someone else ever assembles one of these. The picture provided in the instructions shows the fuel tanks on upside down.

Lookin good, I have never assembled a locomotive before. I might have to try one like this, a small switcher.

Nice looking engine and very nice job on the build too. Are you using the grey and maroon or the greenish grey for the paint color?

Fresh out of the paint shop...Basic Erie black.

Unfortunately this one is not mine. It is being built for a customer. I neglected to buy one from Joe thinking that I will get to it someday.

Started decals today. I don't have a complete set here but, do have one coming to finish this.

Well, the paint shop completed the lettering. They just need to paint the handrails and install the headlight lenses.
