EMD AEM-7

[styckx]

Welcome Phil. As Buzz said, we are here to help the best we can. Derek and Simon usually post a random development render of the model as they move a long. Most here are excellent at spotting things that are incorrect before it is too late. Thanks for joining and nice to see more working with the community here.

Bill.

P.S. Buzz those trainorders pics can't be properly viewed unless you are a member.

That's perfect styckx. Thank you very much for your kindness too. This type of information will help to create a perfect set of trucks.

I would really like them to add the flashing ditchlights. Could be made like the strobe on the SW1500, activation with the F key.

Wow you beat me to it. So far so good everything in in its right place. I wonder if they will do the AC version as well. Plus What do you think that wire height is set to by looking at the pantograph?

It looks like the 7.2m to me. That maybe to high.

I've noticed that the little Amtrak plate in the middle of the side is missing and the bell is also missing.
