I have a coupple of requests! (No really?! )

1. 40ft D&RGW steel Boxcar WITH autonumbering, and in the old D&RGW style

2. 40ft, and 50ft steel CN Boxcar with autonumbering, CN Noodle

3. NP Passenger set: F7AB, G-Trax Lightweight Passenger set, 40ft express bagage boxcar, ALL in the Green/White/FadedGreen style (not shure what it is called)

4. D&RGW GP9 with small logo

5. GN Passenger Set: F7AB, G-Trax Lightweight Passenger set, 40ft express bagage boxcar, in GN Big Sky Blue.

i'll come up with more as i think of them, but these are a must and many of you can aggree with me! (especally with the passenger sets!)

I still have the 40ft CN box, just trying to patch autonumbering on it ( making that look ok is pretty nasty ). Chucking the paint on a 50ft would be easy I guess. I would like a FP9 to throw VIA paint on one day.

I suppose, once Mad Mike gets around to repainting boxcars (if he ever gets time from repainting loco's that is) y'all are gonna have a nice fleet here. I think Mike could repaint a pidgeon if it stood still long enough.

I'll start with the NP passenger set.

Next on the list.

the rest are obvious in how they should look.

Oddly enough I was looking at the NP set earlier, that rather appeals to me. Not sure about whether I'd want the Gtrax cars or the britkits ones though. Uh, I'll try & get the CN stuff I've done finished first :p

I would love to see some more CNW stuff, perhaps a GP15 or two? And I know it's a stretch but someday I hope someone does some WSOR stuff.

I need help... the 2 best photos of the F7 are both color shifted, and it's not really clear what the exact color is supposed to be. This is my best guess until someone finds better photos or a text file that lists the color names.



The original had the 'Northern Pacific' on the air grill on the B unit. I tried to replicate that, but the grill is not flipped for the left side and the text turns out backwards (too bad too, it looked really nice). This is the best compromise I could come up with. Need to do a bit more to finish this.

Looks good to me, except for the part where it says "radio equiped". that looks somewhat off? The colour looks good to me though!

Looks good to me. Fine Job !!!

These are what I could find:

Went with the third photo that Papa posted... used that number and added the nose lifting rings. The Express box does auto number. I imagineered the express boxcar, as I was not able to find an example.

So far:
