Here are some photos of My Norfolk Southern C36-7. My Dash 9 project is on hold until i can get another 8-40B sill, so I figured I could get almost finished with this engine. It will be road number 8540. It is built from an Atlas C30-7. I added a cab from an Atlas B-boat as it is better detailed, and only required a little modification to fit. The Dynamic Brake box is a DA part and the grills are Hi-Tech parts. It has etched steps, DW horn, plow, MU hoses, etc... I made a few changes from the prototype, like the light housing on the nose was not present on the C36-7's, but I didnt feel like altering it. Photos:    |

Thanks Guys! I may build another one, they're not too hard to build, the only trick is finding the DA box.
