THAT is really, REALLY looking nice, Bob. Excellent work. Thank you a bunch for sharing.
"One of these days" I hope to do a Frisco GP7... when I do, I'll be picking your brain about what you used here/there/etc!

So here's an update on my GP-7 conversion from an AM GP-9 using the DPH long and short hoods: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/S-Scale/photos/album/2131888790/pic/502794707/view?picmode=&mode=tn&order=ordinal&start=1&count=20&dir=asc I've moved onto the handrails using DPH's early GP stanchions. They're beautiful castings, though a little fragile. After seeing Bud Rindfleisch's post on the Archer s scale treadplate decals, I decided to add them as well. So, I'll do that before completing the handrails. I did note, however, that the stanchion holes don't line up with the AM handrail holes, so new ones have to be drilled at a higher location. It's relatively easy to fill the old holes with .035 styrene rod and sand it smooth. I'll post some photos of the treadplate after I apply the Archer transfers. What have you all been up to? let's post some photos. Bob Frascella Wenham, MA ------------------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Links
