That is incredible Sandro!!

You must have more shells there than all there was ever at Kaslo!

I have just bought some drill bits so that I can start building my own...

I forgot to ask you again...

About these REDBARNS kits, what is the toy "engine" that you put in ?
Do you run KATO engines in these shells ?
Will the chassis fit properly or does it need any cutting under the shell where the ends will touch the body ?

I am asking because the shells are a bit different than the KASLO ones.

i use kato sd40-2 mid production. since these units feature some underbody detail molded onto the fuel tank, the shell needs some filing on the inside. not a big thing though. lengthwise they fit perfectly.
