Is there a cabview out there that would match this loco to some degree? I know one hasn't been specifically made for this thing, but thought perhaps another loco might have a cabview that would be better than a GP38 or modern GE cab.
look for Dash7Cab.zip in the download section. I like it. (Added) It loads into the Common.Cab folder, and has alias .cvf files so you can use it with any loc.

Yeah, I've got that one already, but it's designed for a "spartan cab" rather than a "wide cab." I'm gonna try the NSdash9 cab that came with a set of 4 NS locos to see what I think of it. I've already got it set up in my common.cab folder, too, so it won't be hard to switch to something else if I decide I don't like it. It's probably too "modern," but I haven't found anything else I'd rather use.
Clayton, I think you are just going to have to settle for the NS cabs. I looked around also for this and it is the best. This is such an oodball engine, unless someone is extrememly bored I don't think we will get the right cab for it.Kevin Arceneaux DEFAULT IS FOR DUMMIES
OOPS! Missed the "Q." At the risk of stepping on my tongue again, there was a file for a Dash 8 wideview with analog gages. It was dash8cab.zip if it's still there. I unpacked it, but hever plugged it into anything, so I don't know what it looks like, or if it is similar to what you need. If it's not still in the D/L's, I could email it to you - send me a "private note" with an e-mail address.
