This is still in the very early stages, but I thought in was good enough to show.
If anyone has any diagrams for anywhere on this engine please let me know.

I would love to see this finished!
Here is a link to side diagrams of this engine. Trainiax has diagrams of just about every engine you could want.

Thanks for the blueprint, but that's actually what I'm using for right now. What I need is something for the cab when I get to it and the front, back, and the top.

Looks good, but I wouldn't worry about the cab right now.

Good thing about these locomotives is chances are, it's cab looks almost identical to the Alco RS-11.

We'll see if we can find any cab pictures for this come later.

Just a small update, I have started work on the trucks plus some place holder shapes.

Think it's looking pretty good, so far haven't been able to find any cab pictures though, I don't believe there are any.

Thanks! I also need front, back, and top down views if you happen to know where to find them.

Below is a link to a video of the inside of a cab on an Alco RS-32 of the Falls Road Railroad. I'm no alco expert, but the RS-32 and RS-36 production overlapped in 1962, so I would think that the cab would be very similar.

I already love it.
But I can't see much of it, white on white makes it difficult to see.

Great. We really need Alcos, high and low hoods.
