Mine this week. I got white on this a while ago. Finally got around to masking it and getting the paint done. Started decals last night. Should be done by the weekend I hope.
Thanks Steve. I saw your work featured by Tangent this week. Great stuff! I saw today that the St. Louis RPM is on. Planning to attend anyone ?
Thanks Bob, that Tangent car was pretty mild but I guess Dave liked it. RPM is still on so far. I will be there. Hope more guys will too.

Yes Andre. A fortune and impossible to find. I have overpaid for a couple but would over pay again in a second for one more to complete the series. I keep hoping someday a modern release of them will be made. But instead we get more SD40-2s it seems.
Not Wednesday, but just installed a Railpro locomotive module in the GP38-2 I purchased from K. Wulfert, that caboose too btw.
Cool stuff Craig. I love the rail pro idea. I’d like to see some in HO projects in person. Kevin Packard is the only other HO rail pro user I know. I have seen some large scale but it’s pretty easy to fit with 1/39tj scale equipment. Keep us posted on how you like it.
Quarantine for a year and a half, I assume you have been in the garage working on the Ford the entire time right Craig?
That is just some outstanding work there Bob! I think I could find a building or two to kick off my MRR if you ever wanted to part with it. But really, that it some nice work there.
Probably would, but I drove it 5 yrs and gave it back to my father. He's enjoying it now. Most recent picture.
