Furloughed and bored!

[stlrail]

Hey everyone!

Hope everybody is doing as well as possible in these crazy times. I'm recently furloughed from CPRail and have been keeping busy with doing DCC installs for friends and building/detailing some of my stash of HO units until they call me back to work. I've recently finished up a couple of SOO Line geeps, rehabilitated a junk pile LifeLike SD60M, and I'm currently on a Green Bay & Western kick. I'm kitbashing a RS-20, have a  Atlas C424, and just made an impulse buy of a Lima C420, that will become 305, 322, and 323, respectively. I'm looking forward to getting some tips and feedback and posting progress of my projects!

Here are the SOO units I recently finished, the GP35 is an older RTR Athearn w/ Tsunami 2, and the GP40 is a Bachmann, and yes, the strobe operates on their factory DCC:

Nice work, John, and Welcome to the Detailer! Please continue to share your efforts with us, even after you are called back.

Always had a soft spot for the GBW. For all the times I made it to Kewaunee by road or water, I never got to see GBW running. Their cars keep appearing on my CNW layout, but I've resisted the urge to build the power. Now SOO? Different story, as my Soo fleet is almost ready to hit the workbench.

Anyway, welcome aboard and show us the in-progress pics.
