Looks great Dan, glad you could use them! Any plans of doing a ex UP CN 6000? nudge nudge If I could make one suggestion though, to paint the armrest black instead of Silver. Athearn is the only plastic cab that had the armrest moulded on, I think Athearn based it on UPs standard armrest. The bottom can be silver, but the top is a hard rubber material.

And a quick shot of the unit with the new, correctly sized 2241 cab numbers.

That looks great Dan! A bunch of these LLPX units worked on the old Bangor and Aroostook back in the 90s. A friend and I are gearing up to build several, and it would be great to have the right sized numbers. Where could I get my hands on some?

In fact, I think I might need another set for a 2210 and 2221 in the future...

Dan, that looks fantastic. Can't wait to see what you have in store for those GP9s They're on the backburner right now, but I did get a bit of work done on one the other day while sick at home. Might be easy for some to recognize what this one will likely become...

A ex Cartier GP9 that was on GEXR? If so, I'm going to watch this with interest, Mr. Dan

Wow, Dan, if you can turn out quality work like that when you are sick, imagine how good you can do when you are not sick (hope you are feeling better today)!!
