Jerry You should move it closer to the cab... http://espee.railfan.net/nonindex/c-boat_photos/7913a_sp-u30c-rob_sarberenyi.jpg
Your loco's are looking really nice. I might have to ship some of my SD-7's down there for upgrades .
After trying several different ways of doing the bell holder, I decided on this. it will work for now, until someone makes a better one.
Not much glue holding it all together, so hopifully it will be OK. We'll see how it looks painted later. I am going to make sure it is well set before I touch a paintbrush to it.
I should add, another reason I don't want to change the number to the second order is that the second order had the SP 'L' shaped window. While I really 'L'ove the L' shaped window, I don't want to cut one in this cab.
The light packages require that much juice to operate? Or did SP just require that much capacity for other reasons?
Sunshades are installed, and BLMA MU hoses. (These are excellent if you haven't used them!) Let these dry, and tomorrow I'll put the plows on, and numberboards.
