Here are 2 projects that I am working on. GMTX SD60's 9041(Ex-EMD Demo) & GMTX SD60 #9042. GMTX 9041 started out as EMD 4 and I added smokey valley HTCR II truck sideframe kit(#145) as GMTX 9041 has the SD70 trucks on it. I did this as trying to get EMD 3 is alomost impossible at a good price. Just started on it still need to remove all the handrails & mask off the body & paint out all the "EMD" & "Electomotive Lettering on the hood as well as MU hoses better plows, horns, antenna windshield wipers etc. GMTX 9042(started as EMDX 9058) is a bit farther along all EMD lettering & logos have been painted out & Ive already re lettered it to GMTX & Renumbered it & also changed out the sideframes from silver to black as all of the SD60s now the silver paint on the trucks has long faded off. I also just aquired a SOO SD60 & will be doing a CEFX SD60 soon. IORY87

Thanks guys, cab numbers on 9042 are microscale decals(EMD Lease set #524) & the GMTX reporting marks are from the microscale sheet #90101(standard gothic white)
