Here is a shot of my P2K GP20. GN had around 36 of these puppies, all high hood just like the Wobbly did. Half of their GP20s were repainted in the BSB scheme prior to the merger. The units were used mostly on the line over Elk Park Pass between Helena and Butte and hauled lots of raw copper ore to the processing plant in Great Falls. It was not uncommon to see up to 10 units on one of these trains and they frequently had to double the grade over Elk Park. When Walthers dropped this puppy on the market, I hadda have one. It came pretty well detailed and I added snow plows to both ends and had to turn the horns around plus add a few more details. She is a nice unit by Walthers.

GP20s have been on my build list for a long time. Your detail additions make it more GN than the stock version. It looks good.

Looks like Walthers even got the GN-only steps right too. 5 steps instead of the standard EMD 4.

Looks really good, a little too clean though
