Runaway Train 1985 f7a #1500 & GP7u's

[hlcx4300]

Here are the 3 first generation EMD's from the movie ''Runaway Train 1985''. F7A #1500, & GP7u's #812 & 1810. As you may remember, I did this project a while back. Let me explain, The first set was never completed and was later sold to a friend. Thus, I remade it with better engines and much more detail. I have not yet started on the new GP40-2 yet but once that is finished then the set will be complete. As for the models. #1500 is a Bowser F7A completely overhauled with corrected AAR specified details. The GP7's are Proto 2000, With complete overhauls done. All the snow is made from baking soda and added to the engines just like as you would with ballast or scenery. i1308.photobucket.com/albums/s611/WrentAwreck/P1010025.jpg [/img] i1308.photobucket.com/albums/s611/WrentAwreck/P1010029.jpg [/img] i1308.photobucket.com/albums/s611/WrentAwreck/P1010033.jpg[/img] i1308.photobucket.com/albums/s611/WrentAwreck/P1010028.jpg [/img] i1308.photobucket.com/albums/s611/WrentAwreck/P1010031.jpg [/img] i1308.photobucket.com/albums/s611/WrentAwreck/P1010030.jpg [/img] i1308.photobucket.com/albums/s611/WrentAwreck/P1010032.jpg[/img] i1308.photobucket.com/albums/s611/WrentAwreck/P1010026.jpg [/img]

Awesome, i really like the carnage from the wreck on the lead unit. That's got to be one of the best bad movies ever made.

These things are absolutely epic. I wana go watch that movie now.

Only thing they are missing is a snow diorama or a operational snow themed 4X8 layout.

Great movie, and great models too!! I missed it when you posted las year. So, you used backing soda, mixed with White glue? Congratulations, you caught the feel of iced metal on those locos!
