AZL DT&I gp38-2

It's just about finished up. This is a modified azl gp38-2. I removed the dynamics and added a bell to the front for a more prototypical look. I'm happy with how it turned out. I'll probably put this up for sale if anyone is interested.

Looks great!

Did you do the decals yourself? If so, how did you go about that? (I am currently turning an AZL 38-2 into a CSX MOW orange loco and will have to scale down N scale decals next...)

cheers

Nice loco. Don't you consider replacing its truck mounted AZL couplers with body mounted MTL's?

welcome to trainboard!
i was able to get these decals from eBay by a friend who made them. I actually posted a topic titles decals on the forum explaining what I normally do. I've got some transparent film to start making my own decals. I normally do n&w livery. I'll post the link to the page

 

Hey dom
no I didn't consider doing that. I'll do another one with more details.

Nice. In a recent video, it appears the Ann Arbor has been reborn, with some units in UP colors, a GP35 & GP38.

 

Thanks for the link to the decals thread, much appreciated
