I finished this today..... On the third try I got everything right. I used a testors semi-gloss finish on it. The decals are from Micro-Scale. It is super fast and has LED 2mm lights on the inside. I have finsihed a couple of other NJT engines. Including a original Walthers E60CP whicih I restored back to LN condition. I'll post these in another thread later.

Awesome job!!!
John
I don't have a one track mind. It depends on the turn-out. "I love your catenary!" Is that a power-trip or just another pick-up line?

Nice paint job. I never saw an E8 in NJT livery, much less white instead of silver.

I have top find some small numbers to put on the number boards in the nose.
