RE: Soo Line FP7's by request

I re-touched these a little by trimming the nose stripes back towards the front a little more--to where they end under the numberboard like the real ones looked. Also touched up some other parts. So these are about ready to pack up. The bottom pics here is my guide pic. Jim

Here's a link you might find useful
http://www.3dtrains.com/guides/msts_colors/It should help you with the C&NW Zito yellow and "old" yellow.
One thing I just noticed(must have overlooked it in the pics you emailed me) but if you look at the prototype pic it looks as though the roof is maroon not black(note roof edges and winterization hatch)

That's lookin real sharp,now I'm going to have to start tracking down the proper heavy weight stock to skin up the Laker and see about firing up TSM to get us a proper wooden Soo hack to bring up the rear on freights.
ThanksGary S

Paul, Gary expressly wanted all font in RR roman, so RR roman is what it got whether its the right font or not. Jim

My bad,I should have specified RR Roman was for the Soo font for the carbody but the number boards are a minimal problem that if so desired the end user can correct.Gary S
