And now for somehting completely different.

Does this count as my roster? :D

SP SD9E 4404 is my pet project. I got the front red and white gyra lights working and am working on the rear one. Needs a little grey paint on the cab and some SP beige inside. This locomotive SHOULD be operational within the coming weeks when we get a governor from another SD9E in San Francisco. It is located in Portola, CA.

You bet it does! That's even better than a model SP SD9.

What do you mean? I have 159 Unassembled locos, according to the spreadsheet I use to keep track of what I have. That doesn't count the ones I got off of eBay recently, which could be 10-12 or so, easily (if not more, I haven't updated this sheet recently).

I'm pretty sure there are over a 100 built, but not all are easily DCC compatible, so they're in the back of the storage bin.

Zephry~

in thi pic of the "other yard" is this unit a brass model or one you kitbashed??? The one I am talking about is the unit behind the EMD Demostrator, it is the blue and red I think it is the HGLX?
