its a bit late for this week, so I'll save some for tomorrow.
Some new acquisitions and projects! Pictured, an ex-Penn Central GP38, ex-LV GP38AC, and a pair of PRR P5As.
I'm particularly excited about the GP38AC. The Atlas model is just a GP38, but I picked up a new set of fans from Cannon and have some other ideas about how I might add the details that make the GP38AC distinctive from the GP38. They were a transitory model from the GP38 to the GP38-2. I've been picking up many more geeps lately, since I was able to get several undec Atlas GP38s and GP40s for VERY cheap prices. The model railroad club I'm a part of is getting more into operations and its nice to have these types of road switchers for those trains!
Speaking of GP38s.... ex-PRSL under construction! Need a blacker black though...
