Finished (sort of) this engine last week. I made custom brackets for the ditch lights, new horn, trainline air hoses, etc... I will be weathering it and patching the lettering to make it a Central Railway of Indianapolis engine.

Love it !!! GP30 is one of my fav's from EMD - the way many hate her for her "different" appearance, the way I like her.
I have two low hood units yet to be done, but Walthers is extremely weak in supply with spares ... I'm waiting for over 8 Weeks and still no ETA ...

Ahh, That must be the one you asked if I could do some work on! Looken Good! Those ditch lights look like they were put on in the NCCR shops! I can't wait to see this when your done with it!
I'm fixing make some links to the pictures you have seen.

BTW, Let's make Bob Harpe cry!!! He thinks we are desicrating (Spelling, ?able) the most awesome engine ever built. Nahh, We are only making them live a little longer in a more modern world...
You know, I was just thinking, this is how my latest GP30 started out. Just like this. And as I look at these shots. P2K didn't do a bad job with the NS graphics. I normally find bad flaws in factory painted units.

Have you got a close up picture of the horn you put on this puppy? Any more recent shots? David
