RE: NEW NS GP40-2

FWIW, be careful calling her a "reskin," especially if the only changes you made to the original were to add the white patch and change the numbers. Some people don't care, but some are particular!

RE: NEW NS GP40-2

Well...I looked around and found out my numbers were incorrect for the unit. Here is the more prototypical looking Loco. NEW NS GP40-2 "Patch" – image 17

yep, changed it to 3006, which had the "can opener" logos. I am currently working a new skin for the locomotive you have pictured above. I am having to paint the templates so that is about 60% done. gotta finish the details around the doors and stuff and then off to the have the original numbers stenciled on and then the restencil. Thanks for the info,
Chris
