Thanks Ryan.
It’s been a little while since I have been able to sit down and work on the GP15-1…lots more work on the yard and patio than I remember when I was working!!! 😮
Anyway…got the decals on it..and started cleaning up the model…to get it ready for flat coat…and then weathering. My fiber optic arrived…so I’ll be able to post pictures of sound decoder installation of speakers and all soon.
Wonderful work, Tom.
That inspired me to make a GP15-1 for my layout.
I love those engines…Thanks for the kind words…Only 11 more to go!!!
These are some of the GP15-1’s I took in Monroe La around 1988. I also photographed MP 1666 in McGehee Arkansas. I modeled 1666 by taking an already decorated Athearn GP15-1 and simply removed the existing numbers off it and added the new numbers from an Herald King decal sheet. All this took about 2 nights, one of the most simplest modeling projects I have done to date.
