Oh yeah! Now that is a great fleet of locos. Like you, the CF7 is my favorite. What did you do to install the beacon lights on them? What other mods did you do?
I rebuilt one of my Athearn CF7s as follows... first, i ditched the Athearn chassis. Second, I took a Kato GP35 and shortened the chassis to fit the Atheran Shell. Third, I added a digitrax sound decoder, and put the speaker in the cab. Only thing is, the sound decoder needs to be reprogramed with more accurate sound software. right now, it is of a modern diesel. Only thing is, i don't have the hardware needed for reprogamming it.
Reinhard, I also would like to see a photo of that boxcar in the background.
