For an older MOC, I think they looked pretty good, reminds me of a GP15
My first train MOC was a 88ton switcher about 15 years ago. Although it could be

Well one of the great things about LEGO railroading is that no MOC is
completed, there is aways room for improvement. The UC engines were retired
to a box in my LEGO room till this week. I dug out the old engines and
rebuilt them with a new modern look. I did keep the old decals & numbers in
tack just so part of the orginal train was still there. (I may put new decals
on the engines one day)
Now the good
old engine
5412 has returned to life along with the
other UC
engines.
All the picture goodness can be seen
here after moderation.
