Here are two more: [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v409/railfan/FNRRDC5.jpg[/IMG] I call this one an RDC-.5 (point five). Cut apart Athearn RDC shell fitted to an Athearn SW-7 chassis. A fun one! [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v409/railfan/VIA757.jpg[/IMG] Of course VIA Rail did not have SD40-2's, but this one was made from a prototype. A movie was made in British Columbia - "Sudden Impact" - I think, and the movie company leased some VIA passenger cars for the movie. They couldn't get a VIA engine, so they leased a BC Rail SD40-2 and painted it up like a VIA engine. Mine is an Athearn with various paints and decals. There was a photo of the prototype movie engine in a Canadian magazine, and I used it to make my copy! Bob Boudreau
