Hi This model was designed to be a quick as well as cheap build but turned out to be a bit more involved that I thought mainly due to altering the handbrake from a wheel to a ratchet. Couple of bits still to add in the form of brake distributor valves and the handbrake linkage to the front truck Cost wise here's the breakdown (in £'s as I'm a Brit) P2K SD60 (cheap as fan missing) £40.00 Athearn Q rad fans £3.50 A-Line Sunshades £2.25 DW Rear mirrors £1.75 DW Air line £1.50 DW Duel fuel fillers £2.00 DW Rotary beacon £2.50 DW Firecracker Antenna £2.00 DW EMD Fuel Tank brackets £2.50 DW headlight lens £3.50 DW Ratchet handbrake £1.50 Vallejo dark red paint £1.60 Which come in at a round £65 (and the TCS DCC chip was a freebee from a friend!) www.flickr.com/photos/13460546@N02/3003842346
