Talking New on my work bench
Well, Winter is a good time for new development, custom and projects and here we go: this is my new custom built SD40-2 NS high hood with typical, noticeable bell. Any command, concerned input are welcomed.

Regards,
Hien.

Hien,

Looks great! I like the bell. How do you manage to keep the holes for the hood steps that accurate in line?

Very nice! I have to say I like the old high hoods on the NS. The old whales look mighty fine.

Low Nose
Good timing, we have the low nose SD40-2 in NS releasing Jan 1. Will look nice lashed up!

Cheers
