In planning are: SD45: Undec Spectrum to CRR #3601 2-GP38's: Con Cor repaints into CRR #2007-2008 4-SD40's: RPP & Kato into CRR #3025-3028 GP7: Atlas Undec into CRR #911 GP35: Athearn Blue Box detail for N&W (Ex NKP) low nose with dynamic brakes. Other projects are on the distant radar: -Detailing a pair of Athearn BB SD40-2's (L&N's) -Lettering a Spectrum 2-6-6-2 for Clinchfield -Cleaning up a pair of original issue Atlas CRR GP7's. These just need lubed and their contacts & brushes cleaned. These projects will eat up a good bit of time. Added to my other hobby I will be quite busy the rest of the year.

Thanks, I cannot wait to finish at least one. Just remember that I will be adhering to the "good enough" philosophy). The Con Cor GP38's will only have their fuel tanks fixed, the molded steps replaced on the shells and basic details plus the repaint. No replacing this cab or that hood door... none of that stuff. The same for my RPP shells. My Athearn Genesis F7A/B will only have basic details as well. I am not removing the skirts and modifying the battery boxes. Too involved and time consuming. My skills are not that good. I have a LIMITED budget and even more limited time. I have to make the best of it....
