Here is some progress on my upcoming CSX YN2 repaints. The first locomotive that I am working on is the C40-8. Here are some screenshots! !!*ok*!!

Wow, these look very smart indeed, do you think you could add just a touch of rust, or, grime to one of them, make it look a real workhorse, that would be perfect, thank you, carry on young man....... **!!bow!!**

And if you could include multiple railroad C40-8s in your little project, CNW/UP/CN/Conrail/NS, that would be brilliant, it's one of my favourite engines, thank you so much.

Cheerz. Steve.

Thank you very much Steve! I will be making two more variants, so there will be more opportunities to get them grimy and rusty. *!greengrin!*

Those repaints you mentioned would be great and I will add them to the list. I will probably finish up what I am doing here first, if you don't mind. !!*ok*!! !*salute*!

WOW! I wish I could be as good at repaints like you are, that's stunning! !!*ok*!!

If only the base model itself didn't have all the bugs it has. But that's Dovetail's fault not yours.

Unless they have recently fixed them the ditch lights will not turn on aside from flashing, the brakes are kind of wonkey, and I think maybe a few others.

more or less minor stuff, but the ditch light thing is pretty big to me.

With Searchlight's enhancement pack the Dash 8 runs great on my end! *!greengrin!*

You're doing such a better job than I am in repainting! Mainly because the real world comes first, but I like the progress on this Dash 8! Looking forward for that download button...

I probably did a little too much weathering on version three, but you all let me know what you think. !!*ok*!!
