I just put in the final roof detail on her so here's a shot
Here she is On DPU duty going west to the Yard then up to Duke Power there she will be assigned to a small coal train back to the loader on the Wallow Creek branch
I just thought of something! !??? Are the ACes set up for DPU service?
Yes I believe so, they come through lawrenceburg almost daily in dp coal service. You had my attention at "1002" 8)
Lol...thanks KIT... I know I.need to get that lil switcher made someday
Yes they are set up for DPU and ECP. 1002 has been the DPU on loaded trains here a couple times, but I never had my camera when it came through.

Yeah I guess that was a dumb question.
Thanks guys
Love that engine Badhorse.
Me too .. just wish she had sound ..and a ISO cab but ill live lol
Take a felt/ultra fine tip marker and make your own ISO-cab line! Dan Just a thought!
Weird yesterday I taped her up to "paint lines and peeled the decals off lol so after I renumber it ill try that
Had a set of decals that has a tiny lil Dark Blue stripe ... and I used that ... let me know what ya thinks
I also added the box "thing" on the conductors side of the fuel tank
This is kinda a lil before and after pica
Looks good. I would weather the ISO line a little... but, you prob were already going to do that. And the tech term is "thingy" with a "y" ;D Dan
I have to say that is a nice looking engine, and I don't usually like any engine designed to leave yard limits. ;D
Thanks KIT
Badhorse, as per your "peeled the decals off" comment... do you seal your locos with dulcoat or glosscoat? I find that it keeps the decals on... and blends them into the paint to hide the edge lines. Just a thought. Dan
I use semi-gloss before I decal ... then I use solveset but I only flat coat the areas I weather.... but now I've learned to tape up the windows so I can seal the whole shabang
Windows... and WHEELS! don't forget to tape up the wheels!!!! Dan :)
I do lol I doooo....
