I've tried the Santa Fe groups with no response. I'm building the SWBLW which is a rebuilt Baldwin VO1000. The paired end cab windows were replaced by a group of three on each side of the door. I need to find the size of the windows. They all look to be about the same size.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks. - Dave

Here's a link to the history of the "Beep": atsf.railfan.net/beep/ Basically what they did was replace the Baldwin motor and trucks with EMD parts. It was done during the time period of the CF7 creation. However it was not as successful as the CF7 project and all subsequent conversions were canceled. The cool thing about this engine is that it is still in operation today for the BNSF and still in the paint scheme you see in the picture except sub-lettered BNSF. It has made for an interesting project. - Dave |
