Spirit of Washington Dinner Train

As a request from member deeplyshrouded, I've decided to undertake doing the Spirit of Washington Dinner train for MSTS. I have no release date scheduled. It will be done when it is done. I only have most of an F7 skinned now, and i have the whole freaking train left to go.. I'm working on it in my spare time, which is virtually nil.
SO! With that said, here's the progress on the F7-A, which is Marc's model. Deeply found me a side on pic of the logo (! ) and that helped tremendously. I've still got to put the stuff on the nose, and do a power car and an unknown number of passenger cars.. I'd like to use Gaetan's. I've got more research to do obviously, but I had enough to do the locomotive.
So Here's the pictures (Didn't I say that earlier? )

Not a doubt about it, complete trainsets can get quite arduous. It took me a good couple of months to get the Montreal Limited finished just working on it little by little in my spare time. Keep up the good work!Grizzly

I know there is no B unit.., nor will one be released with this set. I started this unit based off some Red MKT skins I did and just overwrote the ace files for the A units. and the ABBA consist of Katy F7's I had became what you see.
You'll note that I said (or at least I think I did) that the model I used wasn't 100% accurate, but Marc's F's are the best F's around, and being short of the correct prototype, I used Marc's.That said, I do need more photo's! Thanks for the offer!Can you email them to Bradley_Linda@vanguard.org
