Good evening-
This could go under as an engine that I've had forever sitting around waiting to figure out what I'm going to do with it, but I finally did.
It's an older Atlas C30-7 that I've made into my home road's lease unit.
I added a Hi Tech anti-climber, as well as the Overland Santa Fe style horn, a gumball, cab shares, and mu hoses and of course, a new plow.
Plus I added the NCE decoder to is as well.
I can't wait to run it- Let me know what you think of it.
Thanks Matt

Reminds me of vacations to Montana and seeing all of the LRCX leasing engines around Livingston. It looks great keep cranking them out. Glenn

Hello Stephen-
I used the Details West a/c unit. I forget which part number it is, but it's for GE's, due to the rounded cab.
Yeah, I had to modify the middle part of the front handrail- All I did was cut the part off that was in the way of the anti-climber and that was pretty much it.
I also added some nice A-Line windshield wipers to it the other day.
It makes it look much better looking.
Thanks Matt
