The cab shades are ten thousand brass sheet. 98% of the locomotive was built using a torch. The copper look on the shades is due to over heating when soldering to the cab. The brass coloring will come back too the entire locomotive during the vinegar and salt paste step.
I was going to build a tender when a buddy sold me his spare CV tender that is proper for this locomotive.
