I just posted the first couple of pictures of my Union Pacific SD-50 model. (URL) to the 'purists': I used a small amount of red striping tape to make the horizontal line around the cab. I'm still debating using some decals to add some detail to the (...) (24 years ago, 15-Oct-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Sorry if I seemed overly critical. Stretching the borders of what TLC did and revising/extending is how you learn. You're doing fine, don't worry. Keep it up. I do think you ought to see if you can't get all your crane folders with one picture (...) (24 years ago, 14-Oct-00, to lugnet.trains)
