LOL, i never even noticed him in the corner of the pic till now. I gotta get one of those cabinet locks, he's getting so tall and reaching for everything. I gotta make sure the train closet is locked up! He can reach for that mat on the table too, never leaving anything out when he's free! lol

Finally started adding more details to my NYSW SD60 fleet that im redoing. Didn't add details the first time, paint sucked so they got stripped so why not add the details this time. Adding waste fluid tanks to fuel tank ends. Cannon steps, and yes i know about the messed up one. I didn't get all the melted plastic out of the area and glue is dry.

Continuing progress on 5 NYSW SD60's. Replaced the metal athearn conrail fllush db grill with the correct cannon grill. Then worked on drilling thru the DW airfilters to allow piping to go thru it. Not an easy task, but did get 2 done. This was my first attempt, didn't come out right at all. Once i got a decent shot of the prototype, i was able to get them mounted properly. will try and finish the other 2 and repair the above one and then add the cutlevers. I will then do the ditchlights, whcih im dreading.

This pic came out crappy, even used photobucket to change the color and it didn't save it. I added more piping to the air reservoirs last night. This is on the conductors side. I was finally able to get some decent pics the other day to help me in this part of the detailing. The end up bending behind the air tank so i did my best to represent this. I'll have the rear portion of the engineer's side done maybe tomorrow. I'll see if i can bring them to work. Added another set of "Y" filler necks to the last fuel tank. I'll start adding some piping to the waste fluid retention tanks also. I also got me 6 sets of Tony Sissons etched spare knuckle holders for these. I may only put them on 2 shells right now, just gotta get them bent up first.
