I have an HO Atlas GP40 undec body of the Made In Austria kind. Does anyone know frame what I can mount this on? I'm not particular if it's powered or not but ATSF had a single exTPW GP40 that I would like to model.
How about fabricating a frame?
Let's hear it.

Dave,
I know somebody with an Atlas/Roco drive for sale. If interested send me a PM.

The Atlas/Roco units were latter produced for ConCor with slightly updated drives (new motor, added light circuitboard, single flywheel) but the same frame mounts and shells. The frames from the GP-38's will work as well. Sadly the fuel tanks are still very sub-par in shape and size, and the same major detail defects (lack of cab steps and cab doors) are still present on the ConCor. A Cannon Cab and sub-base will sort that out though.

Yeah, I was kinda hoping to avoid the work that comes with making the Atlas fuel tanks look better but...
Thanks for everyone's replies
Dave

You could probably rig it to work with an Athears GP-38-2 or 40-2 frame. Just be sure to use the older style sideframes.
