The basic design is the same for all roads, CNW, MILW, RI, SP, BN, METRA, and RTA. Nice work on the "Winnebago" as they are called by the crews. (My good buddy runs these units all the time) The last pic is of a model only the MILWAUKEE road had, and it is close to the Amtrak SDP40F, it is called a F40C. They are still in service today. If you need more pics on the cars I have them!! NICE work!!

Try scaling it down with the scale feature in TSM.F40PHM looks great!Kurt Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

LAST EDITED ON Feb-06-02 AT 10:46 AM (EST)Hi Tony, Here is a pic of the smooth-side 6-window version CNW had from the St. Louis car co. This was also the very first bi-level car built!! CNW was the first railroad to adopt the bi-levels and the push-pull style of commuter trains. I hope these are helping!!
