What next. *!!wink!!*
I am working on a new E8/E9 at the moment. Still some way to go so don't get too excited.
Then as I have got the nose for it I hope to start upgrading my Fs.
!*YAAA*!

Just a few more weeks !*hp*! Oops sorry tweeks. !*YAAA*!

These are the db version. There will also be a non db variant of both the A and B units
I know you can't see the roof detail. I will include roof shots when I can get up there !!jabber!!

Will this one also replace the old freeware model with a new one?

The existing model on my site is an E7. This one is an E8/9. Not quite the same beast, therefore a new model not replacing anything other than the MSTS version. !!howdy!!

Would be great if there was a freeware version of this train as well.

I love your trains.

Whenever I can afford to again I will be buying some more of your trains.

Havig said NO this morning I have been working on this during the day. Not an E8 though. It is an E9 !*roll-laugh*!
A few more tweaks to go. !!**sorry**!! Looking good though.

Can't wait to try it, will we be able to see the nose from the cab view. That would be even better.

One of my favorite diesels and favorite livery, aside from the Santa Fe Chief Warbonnet F7. Nice work as always, KC. (and Mike I guess !*salute*! )

Question about that picture, Mike? What's all that clutter on the roof? A strobe? 3 horns? Vent hoods? just curious I guess.

That would be a coaxial antenna, a rotating beacon, and snow covers.
