Michigan Northern RS3 #2037

[grandtrunkfan]

Ive been wanting to do a project thats not RailAmerica GP related and think Ive found one. I have this Roundhouse Union Pacific RS3 laying around and I think I have the perfect project for it:

My model:


I love the Michigan Northern in Southern style lettering. I love the black and white tuxedo look of Southern as well. This should be interesting...

This looks like a fun build, I plan on doing the chop nose RS3 in the green and white paint down the road. This unit was the last RS3 built. I realy like the paint job the RS2 wore, I think they would make for a very cool build.

I like that 1554. That should look sweet!

The only reason I picked my prototype because I love Southerns paint scheme and I had the model literally laying around. I have a few projects I want to work on this winter. Honestly dont think Ill start this until late December when Im off work for Christmas break.
