Well this is the last of my projects till my patience gain full control
This is the rebuild of 6141 witch will be flipping the first 2 numbers to 1641 I already have the parts on except
the ditch lights and railings so ill paint her tomorrow and decal Wednesday
After this ill start work on the D8-32B that will consume alot of my previously drained patients

Badhorse, is your layout going to have a massive engine terminal? If so, you should get that up and detailed... that way you can store all these locos in the back while working on them... Just a thought... your 1641 looks like what is stored or being worked on in Altoona's back area.

Thanks guys!  And lol MoW I haven't planned on a big shop just 18 staging tracks under the top but I.have an old busted glass display I got from work that holds all 28 runnable locos the back shop may be getting bigger thus the Worlds greatest hobby tour is in town this weekend and it's payday ! Jeez this has got to stop!  Maybe ill just buy some well needed cars pr buildings ! But I am determined to have at least 1-2 of each class on the NS roster in my life time

Well, that is going to be ALOT of locos... Sounds like my favorite line from the book Contact... "First rule of government... Why build one... when you can have two at twice the price."
