    I already miss them and never even had a chance to order from them. If any of you have visited the gp10 thread on the BN forum you'll already know that I was very interested in doing my first loco build. 90% of the modelers who answered my question for help doing this project listed the Sunrise Horst air filter and their exhaust stacks as pieces I needed. Several also mentioned alternatives which also appear to have left active production. Looks like I'll have to sideline my first attempt at a build and hope someone fills the parts gap or try my hand at a different unit.

    At this point I REALLY miss them!

    Dunno Bruno,

    Have not gone through them yet. They're in three big boxes filled to the top. If there is enough interest, I'll sort them and bring them to Louisville. Since I am flying and the cheapskates are charges for extra luggage, I want to make sure there is demand.

    Sorry can't make it to Louisville. If you ever get them sorted I would take 2 of the horst filters and 4 packs of the short stacks.

    Yes bring them with you, and drop the boxes off at the front desk with my name on it. ;):)

    I have the air filter. PM me your address and I'll send it to you. I do not have the exaust stacks but if you can't find them 2 x non-DB Atlas GP38 shells will give you the correct amount of stacks. You will have to carve them off but with the current situation in detail parts that may be your only offer.

    The GP10 was one of my first kitbashes.

    Except for the switchstands which need to be separated out and sent to me... ;)

    (Note: Panic here at UMTRR HQ-- I can't find the stash I already have put away... I know I didn't use them all yet!)
