I just finished building my GP35 roadslug today. I just finished putting the decals on and weathering it. I also built a GP30 roadslug but I think I going to sell it
That's a nice model of a csx roadslug you got there but there is one problem. CSX's roadslugs were built off of GP30's and GP35's. Mainly from the chessie system. Not GP40-2's. It's a nice model though.
How do you take off the decals partially to make them look like they've come off. I tried the Microscale stuff and used and eraser but it wouldn't come off.
if you leave them in water for longer than normal take them out and use a tweezer and a xacto knife and pull it shuld rip, try a couple of test ones..and the spacing of the knife and tweezer will determine where it rips
nice to see weathering. alot of people in the uk dont like to do it and i think theres nothing worse than watching a whole train of shiny locos and cars rolling around. love your work. thanks
i thought tank cars were the only kind of cars that had the safety stripes vertical but im not to sure

There are a few GP40 road slugs, I have seen them. Very nice work.

A lot of auto racks go by around my neck of the woods, but they are never that rusty, but still, a lot of graffiti. good job on that by the way.

Are you sure? I have only heard of the GP30's and GP35's being built into slugs.
trainmandan05 2 years ago
