Turboboost910 OFFLINE Conductor Posts: 250 Thank you received: 17	looking forward to the build! I did #484 in N scale. Cut the fuel tank in half, modified the right side grab irons, exhaust stack cover, pilot details, and whistle bracket moved to the front of the cab. No pictures though, I have no idea where they are!

JoannaBill OFFLINE Road Foreman of Engines Posts: 422 Thank you received: 63	Just a quick update, the work continues and I am keeping up with photos. I'll try posting tomorrow afternoon. In the meantime,I decided to add handbrake details using parts from Custom Finishing. Needless to say, I needed to order some number 66 drill bits, so a slight delay has occurred.

JoannaBill OFFLINE Road Foreman of Engines Posts: 422 Thank you received: 63	I wanted everyone to knoow that this project isn't dead, but is indeed stalled while we dig out from under a ton of stuff at work. First, USPS held my Athearn parts order for 3-weeks for no apparent reason and then work became very busy. I'll get back to it next week.
