Locomotive detailing
Posted by Busahill on Saturday, January 10, 2009 7:06 PM

Ive seeing on the internet while shopping for train stuff and I keep seeing detail parts for Locomotives and train cars. I have a Old Toy Story Train Locomotive, it appears to be an SD40 maybe,it looks alot like my GP40-2 but it has 6 wheel trucks.

But anyway, Im want to repaint it to make it a Southern Railroad Loco, My Grandfather was and Engineer for Southern out of Norris yard here in Birmingham Alabama.I want to use some of these detail parts. Does anyone know of a website or book, maybe even a DVD of someone actually detailing a Diesel Locomotive so I can see how its done?
