I picked this unit up at the local train show for $5. It runs good but it runs like a typical Athearn. It was painted C&O blue, and started being detailed. It has the hood mounted bell and correct horn.
After 10 minutes of work. Had the decals lying around. Forgot I used the yellow C&O decals for the hood ends on another project.:
Im going to do "basic" details (MUs, spark arrestors, etc,) to make it look better than average. I bought it for running on my switching layout when I feel like going into the past. It doesnt need to be perfect IMHO. I should have 25-30 into this unit when all done!
