Not Bob here, but looks to be Details West #318.

Hey Bob, who makes the rooftop piping? That's a DW 318 part, sitting on .015" brass wire supports positioned on each corner. Bob

Bob, those N&W F's look fantastic!!! I'll bet some GM&O F3's would look equally as great!

Bob, I'm an old fart modeler since the 70's, but was a "lone wolf" until just 10 years ago... I THOUGHT that I knew quite a bit, until I started seeing the stellar work of yours, Brian Banna's, and several other great modelers I've come across in recent years! I'm digging through your old posts, trying to find actual BUILD threads... This 'ol dog is excited to learn some new tricks. Especially with E and F-Units! I never gave them the reverence they deserve. I'm embarrassed to say, my only two F-Units on my freelance Railroad are Blue Box! I think I'm overdue to do something special with one of those Covered Wagons. I'm trying to pick up clues from your work! My only handicap in the detailing game is, I have NO machine equipment, and no access to any... So it's Dremel, files, and sandpaper. Thank you, for posting your beautiful work!

I'm envious of that blue and gray unit as I plan to do one myself after one of the former Canadian built Wabash units. What gray was used?

Those have got to be 3 of the best HO F units I've ever seen. Of course who could go wrong when choosing to do models of the Norfolk and Western lol. The blue one is my fav. I think. It's truly a tough choice but for me the blue unit, probably because of the color, really shows that look of a real working career locomotive. Bravo on all three Bob.
