I am about 90% complete on my U33C, all I have left to do is install the speed recorder, air line cables, jewels and number board numbers at which time I will take new photographs. The majority of the detail parts came from the DA kit for Atlas U33C's with the lift rings from Utah Pacific and the Sinclair Antenna from DW. Decals were from the PC set and the Diesel Detailing sets from Microscale.

PC U33C's were ordered by the Pennsylvania, but were delivered in PC paint and were probably the first units in PC paint.

Thanks for looking!

Rule 1: This is my railroad.
Rule 2: I make the rules.
Rule 3: Illuminating discussion of prototype history, equipment and operating practices is always welcome,but in the event of visitor-perceived anacronisms, detail descrepancies or operating errors, consult RULE 1!

I think you'll be amazed at how good this "extra" work will enhance your model. Bob
