Maybe I am wrong but it seems front windows are a little bit too large.
Anyway, it's a good model. Take care !phil

They are, The center divider is about 3 times wider on the real ones. Also, adding the black rubber seal around them to the inside of where the glass is now will help in shrinking them overall. Not bashing, just trying to be of some modeling help. Also, about the logo, The height is correct, but the whole logo should be moved back under the first section of the radiator wings.

Cheers,

Cool SD80MAC!! I love it!! When can I expect it in the file library? An interesting note on 4104, it is currently CSX 801, the only SD80MAC to ever be painted into CSX YN2 (Bright Future) paint. CSX 800 and 812 (ex-CR 4100 and 4128) are in CSX YN3 (Dark Future) paint. I'd love to see an SD80MAC pack. There is already an ex-CR CSX SD80 (803) in the file library, though we could use a better one. How about an SD80 pack featuring a CR SD80, a CSX ex-CR SD80 811, CSX 801, CSX 800 or 812, NS 7213, NS ex-CR 7203. That would be cool.

I think that's how CSX would like to see theirs, considering all of the problems they've had with them. Chris Denbow - Baltimore, MD

Only reason Conrail bought SD80MACs were because they had the tools to fix 20 cylinder motors. CSX placed an order for some but, they canceled it. Also, the Chicago and Northwestern placed an order but that was canceled to, and yes, I would absoulutely hate to see an SD80MAC like that. Long Live "Big Blue" and the SD80MAC!Later NW 1218 LONG LIVE THE F40C!

The CNW order was cancelled because they were assimilated.

That would have been very interesting to see an SD80MAC in the CNW's latest livery.

>Got any more info on this?
>(total number of locos in the cancelled orders, etc.) CR 4100-4128, Order 946501 Delivered 1996EMDX 8000-8001 (demos) dont have the order number but they were built in 1995. they were later bought by CR and became CR 4128-4129CR 4130-4149, Order 96???? canceled par request of CSX and NS, who in turn split the order into 15 SD70MAC for CSX and 20 something SD70's for NSCR had Intended to recive a total of 127 SD80MAC's split into several orders to have been delivered betwen 1996-1999C&NW had a order for 5-15 units that was canceled by UP. It was a continuation of the CR 4100-4128 orderCP had a order for 20.... later turned to 20 SD90MAC-H.... later turned into 4 SD90MAC-II .... 9300-9303
earlier someone mentioned that CR had the tools for the 20 cyl prime movers. The truth is that the same tools are used to repair all GM 710 series Prime Movers.

>Hey Chris what happened to those NS Cabeese you had? Jake,I had problems with the HD, and then lost my internet service, so in the interim, I started on my own fictional railroad. I'll have to download my NW cabs and get your NS cab done for you. Look for it next week, since I'm going on a mini-vacation tomorrow morning.Chris Denbow - Baltimore, MD
