Yeah sorry bud. I think Bob (Rzasa) did these steps way back in the 80s when Athearn widebodies were the norm. They had really short step runs which is probably why they are too short.
You could cut the bottom step off and build up some height but that's alot of work. I was going to do that on a pair and have them cast up in resin, but other things got in the way.

Well that would explain a lot No problem though, thanks for the heads up! I was also thinking about trying to build them up using styrene perhaps. I just got an email from the hobby shop saying they arrived along with the rest of the order, so I'll take a look at them as soon as I pick them up, probably tomorrow.

Braedan Thanks for your reply re lights and bell for my SD40. I'll search for your suggested suppliers. Cheers for the info on the rear light as well, didn't think about that. Regards, Poida.
