Only 14 stitches, Stan??  Let's hope we don't get any more than 30 from now on!! Be safe, it's dangerous out there (especially for me!)  |

More or less done. I see now I forgot to add the front coupler, and I lost some porthole "glass" along the way. Ah well...you can't win 'em all I guess.   |

Wow, looks great! Weren't these in service till '90 or so?
Fred, that's exactly what they were at the end of their service lives - boosters. The cab windows were plated over and number boards removed in some cases. They were pretty worn out when retired, but some (at least two A's and one, possibly more, B's) escaped and are still in service in the US. One still exists (9124) at NRE in Silvis IL, it hasn't been cut up as of yet.

That BB unit came out pretty sharp. I think it's really your weathering that make the look.
