Looks great Rob! Of course I forgot that it should have been dark green with
your original versions (they looked so good "as is").

I was wondering about those 8 studs in front of the cab window. Have you
smoothing that over somehow? I have been noodling it around... and, well, there
are always compromises... (maybe some one can figure it out.. maybe super JamesM
can come up with a SNOT nose ;) )

And nice use of the 1x1 slopes! Those are nice elements!

Train fans,

I upgraded my two Dash 9 engines (C44-9W) to new dark green last mouth and
thought I should share some images. It’s basically a re-hash of my first version
with some updates like a AC unit on the roof and some other tweak do to new
parts. Love that new 1x1 wedge piece! I only show one engine in the new colors
in the images, but they are both updated now. Now I have a bunch of dark gray,
guess I'll build some UP stuff now.

My first post with the Dash 9 in old dk-gray:
