the last two weeks i've been working on cp rail sd40-2 #786 and #5739. both projects are completed and the units ready for duty.
in the meatime work begun on dme sd40-2 #6056. one of the few units with a v-shaped rear fan grab iron. detailing and painting is done and i just need to print and apply the decals.
today i managed to programm more than a dozen engines. speed and address number should be fine on all of them.
also while browsing thru the pictures i decided to start a few new projects :
- dme sd40-3 #6095 : patched cp rail unit - dme sd40-2 #6360 : blue/yellow, dme logo, shortened fuel tank - dme sd40-2 #6360 : blue/yellow, full 'dakota, minnesotta & eastern', shortened fuel tank - emdx sd40-2 #6303 : blue with white nose, shortened fuel tank - hlcx sd40-2 #6202 : blue
on some of these units the frames have to be milled to make room for the shortened fuel tank. also relocating headlights from cab to nose (or vice-versa) might need to be done. of course all these units receive the usual detail parts such as lift rings, grab irons,....
