Here at Cutting Edge Scale Models we have been releasing some new N Scale RS36 conversion kits to match various prototypes. So far we have released 3 variations, and we have a few more to go in the near future.
These kits fit on the Atlas or Atlas/Kato RS11, and some will require modification to the frame, shell, or handrails.
The first version has a high nose, no steam generator, a tall smokestack, dynamic brakes, and louvered side vents to match OMID #408 and other units.

Special thank to Andrew Kyle for this image of a primed RS36 shell with a little bit of sanding needed to finish things off.
Our second variation has a high nose, steam generator, no dynamic brakes, and chicken wire side vents to match nickel plate passenger units. Below is a rendering of the model, which requires modeler-installed screens on the side to finish.
Shapeways Shop
Our third and final version for now is a low nose version with dynamic brakes and louvered side vents. This version uses the standard RS11 cab, but with windows and numberboards included in the model.

We will post more photos as we get more photos of these models.
Happy Modeling!
