Thank Chris,Mike, and Brian, it was fun and I will probably do another sometime down the road.
Brian its SD50 all the way. I am working on some right now. Hopefully get it painted this week weather permitting as it is really humid here right now. I know I got to get some KP stuff done. One of the SD50's I got from you will be a KP.
I need to email you about whats going on.

Anthony, that is one fine looking model. Every aspect of the model seems to match from front to back.

Thank you Bob and Robert. I know it ain't 100% correct for a UB engine but I think it looks convincing and for now it will do.
I think I said this before, I call this my repaint by a sub-contractor, hence the wrong stripes and rear number 5 on the side being the wrong size. Things I will correct if and when I build another one.
It was fun though.

I will get a parts list together over the next couple days and post it for you and anyone else who might want to build one. I will include the right stripes though in the last.

Hey Chris sorry it ha taking me so long to get a list to you on this build. There are only a few special parts on this build that are specific to the UB other wise the rest are what you would use for anyother engine.
These are specific UB parts: Horn - Utah Pacific DH-60
Nose Cluster - Sunrise Enterprises H-114 or Details West HL-200
Roof Mounted Bell - Precision Scale 39152
A/C Unit - Details West AC-158
General parts: Plow (long at pics of what engine you want to model)
MU Hoses
Air Hoses
Rear View Mirrors - Details West RM-353
Speed Recorder
Windsheild Wipers - Either the Details Associates or A-Line
Air Filters
Paint specifics - Old Color - SP Lark Light Grey and UP Armour Yellow
New Color - 50/50 SP Lark Dark Grey and UP Harbor Mist Grey and Reefer Yellow
Decals - Stripes - I used Microscale 8" Barricade Stripes (Wrong Wrong Wrong), it is actually Herald King decals DS-1 and these are super hard to find, you got to look around or email Herald King and see if he is going to run more.
Lettering - Microscale Roman style
You need to go back and really look at his pictures to see what is painted what as you can tell the difference in the colors. Anyway I hope this all helps and if you have anymore questions feel free to ask

Thanks Anthony. No problem taking a little while to get back to me, this is a project for somepoint down the road, after I get my hands on an SD50 to use. When I get to building one I'll be sure to post pictures.

One of the items in parts list is "air filters". Which filters are you referring to?

Anthony on the stripes are they a 45 degree angle.
And if not 8" what are they stripes.
Thanks for any info you can provide.
