      Now that I've got your attention...I've posted some photos of my latest 
project - an A-B FP-7 set.  The A unit is from AM and the B-unit is a Wabash 
Valley shell over an AM drive.  The real deficiency to these shells is the way 
the back end looks, which is completely devoid of detail.  I wanted these 
models to look as good as their SHS contemporaries so I went ahead and detailed 
them to match the outstanding look of the SHS units that they'll be running in 
consist with.  Suprisingly, it wasn't that difficult to add the rear door and 
lift ring details.  the most challenging part was squaring off the angled end 
of the Wabash B-unit.

I still have a bunch of stuff left to do to finish this pair, but most of the 
hard work is behind me.  Hopefully, DPH will restock its line of vertical slit 
Farr air grills soon and I can add them to the B-unit.  A little waethering, 
DCC, sound and lights and they'll be ready for service.
