Four weeks ago, I included in my post a photo of my new undecorated GP38. I wrote at the time that I had ordered a non-dynamic brake hatch section for the locomotive. Happy to report that the new replacement part arrived a week ago, and dropped right into place, just as it should.
Now, maybe I can get to painting the locomotive soon.
Basically the same photo as I posted a month ago, but with the non-dynamic hatch in place of the original one.
I spent most of my modeling time this week weathering a pair of CSX/SBD 3-bay covered hoppers for Jamie. The two hoppers were identical, including having the same reporting mark numbers. I patched over and changed the numbers on one of the cars.
Here area a few views of the covered hoppers after weathering:
The grey patches are done with Microscale trim film cut to fit
And the two covered hoppers together:
The old dump truck is slightly out of scale, but it was mine when I was a little kid and it's staying there.
