Two Times GP30 build

He would pay for his share of details and parts, and in return for the work I was to keep one of them. I didn't think too long and so it was that I went home with two Lifelike Proto 2000 GP30s, one KCS and the other B&O.

The first job was to strip all the paint of both units, then add details as appropriate for SP/SSW GP30's.

A couple of months later, I was ready to paint, and so the SP grey was applied after the Scarlet red was painted on front and rear and masked off.

A few weeks later, I was making good progress on decals, and their identities became more apparent.
