GP38-3 question

[Badhorse79]

I'm currently (finally getting too) doing 5835 and I know that the middle fan was removed was there a round plate or a entirely new section there I can't find any roof shots

Thanks : Eric

There is a very thin square sheet metal plate that fills almost the entire area between the two remaining fans.  You can see it in this photo if you look very carefully:

Thanks Chris I can handle that lol I have a thin sheet of brass that looks like paper cost as much as a new car (model railcar)

Badhorse,
Why are you using brass? I would think a piece of styrene would work. (easier to cut, sand, etc...)

[Badhorse79]

This is true and thats what I did Almost used putty and thought noooo thanks so it's all finished and needs decals witch hopefully will be here tomorrow

As in the other forum that we started about the 38-3, what decal did you use for the HH decal? N scale or the Ho sheet?

[Badhorse79]

I used the little sheet extra from microscales HH set 87-1225 the OLS set is from Shellscale
