DASH 8-40CW RELEASED

[Amtrak351]

After this project, what do you plan on making?

[eyein12]

well im working on the seattle sub and the sd60M alongside this. this will come out first followed by the seattle. after that im tossing around the idea of the sd80MAC or AC6000 as my next new project. but I have the B unit to do before that as well.

[Amtrak351]

Looking forward to that SD80MAC! Hope everything goes smooth for you.

The mac! Are you considering making the SD60M a separate DLC too?

[eyein12]

sd60M will most likely be seperate DLC at this point to round out the sd60 fleet I planned on doing. Although Ive given some thought of including it in the seatle route. I think Im going to include the BNSF dash8W version instead with some rolling stock time allowing. The B unit will be seperate and then I will start the sd80MAC. I decided to build that as my next project.

Hasnt the AC6000CW been done by Mike already? as a Rebuilt ES44AC Heritage Model?

He has as some sort of a nice placeholder but let's get back to the topic.

[eyein12]

I will be doing the sd80mac once I get the other things I have completed.

FYI this cab is probably the most detailed Ive ever done. progress screens to come when its textured.

Can't wait! Will you make a variant with the high numberboards as is usualy correct for NS?

I think I did my homework on this one. there will be a high number board bnsf unit in the seattle route pack.

Conrail had their numberboards on the hood. Those Dash 8's are ex Conrail.

To be a finicky jack@$$, the hood is the long part of the locomotive with the radiators. You're talking about the nose.

yup there are no high numberboard NS units for this model. even the ex LMS units don't have high numberboards.

Depends on the engine......but in that case something made me want to say short hood lol
