Greetings:
The first of three super detailed American Models GP9s is on the road. Pictures are in my group album at http://ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/S-Scale/photos/browse/dc05?c= If the link fails, navigate to my album in the group photo section. I got sick of waiting for the Tsunami Diesel and installed a TCS T4x and Soundtraxx DSX sound decoder. The other two will sit in the shop for the Tsunami, or possibly the new QSI revolution decoder. This was my dual decoder installation. I am not sure of the photos show the weathering which is a light coat of Bragdon chalks over the gloss finish coat. I was told that I needed to shoot dull coat on a model for the weathering to stick, so this was an experiment. I still think that is true for a heavy weather job, but for new engines on the road for a few weeks, the chalks capture the gloss and grime to my eye. The last report was that this engine was seen on the NWP heading towards Fort Bragg, CA. I now have a clear space on my work bench. Gee I wonder how long that will last. <VBG> Cheer"S" John Gibson Rocklin, CA [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
