    Wish I had a layout worth taking pics on.
    I have weathered these since the picture was taken.

    Those do look good. I hope to buy some in the future. Also, I hope to get some Sd40T-2's. I can't decide which one I'd put on point. They'd sit at the main. facility waiting while I'd be pulling my hair out deciding.

    Scott,

    Have you done anything to your 2 SD45T-2 we see on the above picture ?
    They look great.

    Living in France, I haven't had the possibility to see the latest SD 45T-2 from IM, but in comparison with my SD 40T-2 in SP scheme (Speed and roman lettering) your SD45T-2 seem to be even more realistic. Their paint job looks different than former release.

    I have decaled them with white lettering, And added Sunrise ent. sunshades and cab vent.
    I have weathered them lightly since I took the picture. Maybe I'll post some pics later. [​IMG]

    Jeff, Polly scale SP Lark Dark Grey is a very good match. I would like to have more of these, But they're kinda hard to find these days. :(
    Can't wait to see pics of yours!

    Excellent! If you ask me. Considering the only other choices are scratchbuilding or brass.
