    This photo was taken a few years before that happened.

    Recent Atlas C-425 model. Removed the dynamic brake detail, filled the hole and sanded smooth saving the rest of the roof detail. As the New Haven had the smallest fuel tanks, removed the tank bulges and added a styrene plate over the remaining holes along with a Details West Fuel Filler. Added lift rings and the rain shields, then painted with Floquil Soconony Red and Scalecoat II Black paints then lettered with Microscale Decals and Accucals supplying the Red NH decal. I could not find my jewels for the class lights, will install those after I get some more MV lenses next week.

    Thanks for looking!

    Mike, a very nicely put together scene. That bridge is showing its age and the building has a very elegant look.
