  • It is based loosely on his GP50

  • The color scheme is by necessity, not by prototype. Could be CP though.

  • The sticker price is rather shocking ($122.22 without motors!) Buy it (if you dare;-) HERE

I never really give much thought to how much MOCs eventually end up costing; now I think I know why;-)

Hi Steve,

Following the provided link ;) I find 1067 parts and I assume there are no spare since it’s Factory on demand.

John,

Can one engine really have 1067 parts? Do all your engines have about 1000 parts? That is huge! I think my three car Moscow Metro rake only has 1200 or so parts. Wow! I am so glad I build in the proper scale :P

(...) Yeah, between 8 wide and schleiming, the piece count tends to creep north... (...) So you don't have to sell blood to afford your hobby? I see what you mean;-) JOHN BTW, it doesn't cost anything to virtually build 8 wide.... (18 years ago, 30-May-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
