Hypothetical EMD Build

[garagefujimoto]

Started work on my first build in 13 years. I'm on the list for an SD40-2F kit but in the meantime I can this SD60. I was going to paint it for CP but I wanted to try a bit of fun first.

Pretty much just putting whatever looks cool from all sorts of locos and paint for a lease company. I picked up a whole bunch of crap on sale at the hobby shop so I am going to town.

Pics coming soon.

Its a P2K SD60. In the last few hours, I have added a 2 window GP60M cab, SP triple headlight, 4 ditch lights and the biggest plow I could find haha

I am thinking of different hood, fan and radiator combos to make it super weird. I wish I could add a GP30 bulge but that might not work.

Why not

Looks interesting, aren't those Mars Lights on the pilot?

[garagefujimoto]

Yeah they are SP type lights, doing 2 per side like BC Rail because, well I can! No rivet counting on this one!

Can't wait to see this done.

Added cab roof, dynamic fans, horns, brake wheel, extra knuckles and bell on long hood.

started as:


patching the UP for a leaser:


starting to add some color:

and I thought adding an SP light package on a BL2 with ALCO trucks would look weird.....but, I love it!

I think that the EMD SD55 topic would fit in here, as well as any ALCO,EMD and GE proposed locomotive model.
