Greetings everybody,
KATO is having a sale on SD45 shells in there parts section. Painted for Wisconsin Central and PRR, they cost either $20 or $25 depending on options.
I have some PPW frames with Machima can motors, the frames except for can motors weights/cradle they are stock Athern with coupler pockets and frames numbs that need to be removed.
My question after I shave the mounting lug and pockets off, will the shell sit well on the frame? Will the Machima motor fit inside the Kato shell? On a RP shell the Machima motor is an extremely tight fit, snugging up tightly against the body sides.
Also, can I use Kato handrail sets on a Rail power shell with out difficulty?
Thanks in advance,
-Andrew
