Thanks Mike. I bought mine from Broad Ripple Station several years ago. They show up on flea bay now and again.

Looks very good. Did you use the OMI 52" radiator fans or the Detail Associates?

Thanks to all for the nice things you said. I used the OMI fans, they were the only 52" game in town at the time.

What did you use for the see-thru Dynamic Brake Screen?

Sorry for the late reply. Do you mean the inlets or the top grill? I'll answer both to play safe. The inlets are Tichy part#3077 40' steel roof walk cut to size. The top exhaust grill is a Athearn grill from their Amtrak engine. It's not correct, but it much closer than the OMI part that I used originally.
Regards, Bobby

Funny, I bought one of those OMI drives for the SD90 many, many moons ago and never had the courage to build anything.
Still here sitting in the box and I don't know what I'll do with it.
I don't know how an SD90 would fit into my free-lance plans and it might end up being sold off like my OMI AC6000 which I bought around the same time back in 1999 or so... I think.
Still, it might be cool to do an ECO 90 as a project locomotive. |

Ive got a railpower SD90 shell im looking to get rid of. It needs work, but its a great start for a project loco.
