Garry;
First I must apologise for not seeing this sooner. Been under the weather. The forum would not let me quote you. Kept giving me "non matching quote blocks in post", even if I just hit quote and then preview, strange. Oh well.
I do like the E5's!
Down here in the Sunny South, we normally don't get much CB&Q on the modeling front, much less those E5's.
We do have one foo,,,err modeler, yea thats it, modeler who does model the CB&Q, and he has a set of those E5's.
I recently did some paint and kitbashing work for him.
This was an SW1500 that I turned into an SW-1000. Not a real match but was more than close enough for him, as he said he was very satisfied.
And this is a 65 ton Centercab.
The SW is Athearn BB and the Centercab is Overland.
