So I didnt realize.........the AMB laser cut windows for the RailPower shell dont actually fit! Well, specifically the front windows. It appears they are cut for the prototype size which is about a half scale foot too wide for this shell! Man I wasnt happy about that, but some careful measurements and cutting/filing and I got them to fit in. You cant really tell either.
Guess I lucked out. I'll post some more photos of them running on the layout at NTS this weekend.

Well, update from NTS. Turnes out the coupler pockets are also too small on the RailPower shells to accept the Spectrum coupler boxes. Spent about a half hour trimming up the shells on both units but everything fit in the end. (used Kadee #58's) Got the loco's programmed late this afternoon but didnt get a chance to run them except in the staging yard. Should have them out Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning though.
They look good considering they're not finished yet. Still need some weathering, and all of the lights.
