Hello Everyone, I have recently decided to pursue the NMRA Achievement Program and get my Master Model Railroader in motive power. To do this I need to scratchbuild a locomotive. The one I have tentatively chosen is the Morrison-Knudsen MK1200G Liquefied Natural Gas powered switcher built for Santa Fe and Union Pacific. So far I have managed to find a few photos that will help and an overall dimension, but I really need drawings to get this project off the ground. Does anyone know of any drawings printed in any magazine or other source of this locomotive? Also, since I will have to scratchbuild the underframe for this locomotive, does anyone have any idea what kind of soldering outfit I will need to work with brass? So far the only thing I can't get sheet styrene to do is conduct electricity, so it looks like I'm stuck fabricating at least the underframe out of brass or some other metal. Any ideas? Thanks.
