Guys,
Well as all might have noticed, I LOVE to make locomotives that no other big company makes so.....With that, I made this:







This began life as a Athearn GP35, that was cut and chopped. literally, I removed the radiator fan and grilles and then removed all but a few long hood side doors. It got the normal detail treatment, grab irons, and other items as seen, plus my standard metal handrailing as per model assembly with Athearn metal handrailing and custom painted in CSX "YN3" Dark Future paint.......I have yet to make the "Mother Uinit" to this one as its a GP40-2, that will be next for custom building.

This model, is a dummy. YTR design, "Dummy with a brain" as it has directional lighting!

ENJOY!

~John

Many have tried to, and failed, ya just can't repair stupid...

Do NOT try to Idiot-Proof anything!!!! God, will simply create a better......IDIOT!
