Got some weathering done on my former Rock Island GP38-2:

Next up will be "updating" a new kodachrome Athearn SD45T-2 for the SPSF.

Can't thank you enough Sean!!! I just can't wait to get all my EC87's installed on the cars and run it on some rails! *drool* I also installed EC87's on my GP7u & GP30 so they can look complete...

A lease IHB GP38-2 works C&HV's Newark Yard.

Great pix everybody!

MLW, I had to do a double-take on yours - they look like postcards, very real-looking!

Zeph, nice weathering job on that Rock geep.

Josh, I see your collection is growing steadily - lookin' good!

Brakie, I like the dark blue with orange trim on the IHB geep - reminds me of the Maryland Midland in my own backyard, which uses a similar scheme!

Fundy Bob, that steam escaping the piston - I'm curious how you did that...

Dave, I didn't see any from you this week - what happened?

. . .
As for me, I spent the weekend holed up in a blizzard, so I got two more structures assembled. I would've photo'd them and posted, but I discovered that the 'ground ' I wanted to mount them on was uneven and I had to use joint compound[!] the fix the problem, and that stuff takes forever and a day to dry, so now I'll have to wait until next weekend to post any pix!

Keep up the good work y'all, hasta la vista!

Good work, everyone! And thanks for the compliments on The Rock GP. I never did get to the SP tunnel motor... but here are some photos I took today running on the club layout with my other tunnel motor.

I was about to say it hadn't grown at all, then I realized I added that Metrolink set... Here's post #2, there's a 3rd coming next too...

More of BNSF 2750 the GP39M, had to patch the small fan hole...

Showing off the EC87's I love these couplers, they have enough play to allow them to be angled a but and still work perfectly. not to mention you don't have to worry about couplers all being the same height!
