GEC's Layout Progress

[Green_Elite_Cab]

Stuff is looking good,LV unit looks good and an idea,maybe clear coat to seal decal then you could mask
and not worry about it tearing or coming off,I wasnt to crazy about switching from floquil to tru color
but I have to tell ya Im impressed with the paint & their paint line,they even have the right CNJ Blue
for your GP40P

I am as well. Looking in the Walthers Catalog, it seems they are adding even more of the colors that I need, like Platinum Mist, to their roster of RR paint colors. I should probably hurry up and paint this thing so I can have it running at my club's open houses.

I will look tomorrow to see where those decals are,I think I have 1 set left.keep up the
great work

Thank you! I'll definitely have to see about some of those photographs you have as well!

I did sell off most of my newer NJT stuff but kept my GP40P,sold the PH-2,I sticking to the
early 80's stuff The G's E8s E60s GP40Ps ,also a heads up that athearn will probably announce the GP40P
mid next year,they are doing the SP Dash 2(feb or march announcement)

I still model some of the modern NJT stuff for the club open houses, since people tend to recognize it. I'm hoping to get a Bi-level train rolling soon, but I'm waiting on paint. Joe recently produced updated Multi-level decals that actually match the fade pattern on the prototype, and they look really good. I was checking them out at the last Rutgers show.

On one hand, I would LOVE to have some nice Sound equipped GP40Ps, but on the other hand, I already cut up an Atlas GP40 for a kitbash, and then I bought this Brass one, so in a way, its disappointing. I could have waited another year or two if I knew! I should be careful, next they'll be selling E44 in plastic (I still love those Brass ones, I have them operating for my club's open house), or a Proto E60CH!

there are NJ Dot(jersey builders)
at SMS in Bridgeport,NJ. If thats close to you ,other that that in ringoes NJ there are 2 stored well past
the station,came right out of service in 86 or 87 and the look untouched

SMS shouldn't be to bad of a trip for me, but I've never been there. I didn't get a chance to go to Ringoes the last time I was at the Black River & Western, so I'll have to check that out.
