Spent some time today adding the stripes to the Southern on the front and rear, as well as the step on the walk way. Then I decided to add the hoses to the front and rear of both engines. Finally, I made some home-made cut levers from standard staples, painted and attached those as well.

The finishing touches to 2526 went on today...the number boards on the rear. I fixed the holes, painted, and added the decals. If anyone has any suggestions on how I can add a few more details, improve on what I've got so far, please let me know!
And as always...I'm open to all critiques and suggestions. Still learnin'.....

For the NS unit I used a LifeLike GP38? long hood.By the time I sanded all of the detail off the sides it was a perfect fit on the KATO.
For the EMD unit I bought it on Ebay as you see it.It has a Con Cor shell on a stretched KATO chassis.When I posted pics of it on the ATLAS forum the origonal builder could not believe it still existed. :mrgreen:
