Looks amazing. Just one thing...the horn is backwards and it's bugging the crap out of me.  |

Actually, I have a roof shot of the prototype and the horn on my model is not only facing the correct direction but it is also slightly off center per the prototype. That being said, I couldn't find a horn exactly like the prototype so I found one that had three horns facing one way and two facing the opposite direction like the prototype. I mounted it with the number of horns facing the correct directions. Thanks for the compliment!  |

This (http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/235-369) is what the prototype actually has. Not sure if it's in stock or not.

You have to remember until early 90's, NS set up it's loco's to run long hood forward, some of the GP59's I've seen in photo's have the horn on 'backwards'. |
