So it will be at least somewhat "friendly" to adding a high short hood, for
us Southern and N & W fringe group lunatics?

Colin,
Thanks for asking. No, it will not be a kit, much less a flat kit like the
GP7 conversion. It will be a complete locomotive, composed of components not
unlike a current Intermountain or Athearn Genesis offerings. The carbody itself
consists of a long hood, cab, nose and deck. The photos that my very, very good
friend Don Thompson posted show these except the nose. The nose mold was
recently completed and will be added to the samples.
I think only one person other than myself has seen the nose and that is Greg
Elams. Greg has been a tremendous help to our moldmaker in the development of
many of the details. My hats off to Greg for keeping quiet on this until the
carbody was substantially done and we had something to share.
The astute will notice that a good number of the components are common to
many second generation GPs and SDs. My GP35s have already been recabbed and
will both get nose jobs shortly.
Regards,
Ron Sebastian
