2 quick pics of NY&A 156 and 159. They both have working ditch and marker lights. I just have a few minor details to work on to make them look more prototypical.

I did not install the ditch lights, I hate electric work in locomotives. I'll find out though.

What type of lighting did you install? I'm going to be in the same boat with my F40PH-2C project sooner or later (with similar marker lights), and though I've been putting it off, I'm getting to the point where it will be a consideration.

Sweet! The new switchers came out so nice the only thing I want to do to them is replace the mu hoses. From the pictures it looks like you gave this a light dusting, is that right? Would be the real deal...
These units aren't rusted and busted looking because it has the new paint job and it's holding up well. I saw them (and others) a couple times last week, once at night. Love chasing these guys, but they are SO hard to catch.

I've been slowly adding Sergent couplers to some rolling stock and I finally got the extended shank couplers put together and installed on the 2 mp15s. They were fairly easy to assemble and after applying Kadee "greas-em" they work really great. I recorded a short video of the the pair pulling a few cars on my bushwick branch themed layout (still a work in progress).
