Well I just got the CP engine back from my DCC guy. He installed a digitrax DZ-123 decoder:

He also installed a pair of warm white LEDs into the shell.

With that done I sprayed the engine with testors dulcote and added the window glass. You may also notice that it's sporting the proper Alco 'blunt' truck sideframes.

IA few shots of it on the layout. I'm not sure if I'll weather it more that it already is. the dulcote gave it and its' CN brother a slight molted look on the top of the hood and roof, sort a rained-on look.

If there is one thing I'd like to change is if it had a set of Nickel silver wheelsets as the Athearn sintered-iron ones dirty up quite quickly.
