Jeramy,

This is a great model, and very faithful to the original. Nice work!

Tasty MOC, Jeram! I’m having trouble determining whether or not you actually used pale yellow here. If so, that’s awesome! If not, it’s still awesome:-)

Thanks John!

It’s actually tan, which is the closest I could come to the real color, gold. The 2x4 bricks in the recent anniversary buckets would be the closest match, but there isn’t a big variety of pieces to work with.

Damn! That looks awesome.

Thanks Chris,

I’ll be heading back to the build table tonight to start my next engine, either a the C420 or one of my favorites, an FM H10-44 (of which the Monon only had one unit).

The NW2 is sweet. Lots of nice details.

As for the Fairbanks Morse I’m looking forward to it. The FM switchers are some of my favorite diesel locomotives. Here is my humble attempt at an H10-44 in Frisco colors.
