    A few projects I need to finish up

    Going through some files, apparently, I have left off on a bunch of projects I really should wrap up and release for those interested. Sorry, I know. None of it is UP, or BNSF.. sorry.

    Some I need to go through and swap to newer models and possibly start from scratch again on the paint work. (GP38/GP38-2 models in particular)

        Very nice is right Shawn and don't beat up on yourself. I expect most of us, if we are brave enough to admit, have lots of unfinished work -- I know I do, maybe a dozen routes.

          Thanks guys!
          I don't even remember what I made the WFRX coal hopper for. I think it was something I saw in a video of a coal drag over the Mullan Pass, and decided to make one or two, but that project died.

          the CN unit I think just needs a readme file and it's good to go, though I may do another two or three numbers.

          Then I believe the ex CSXT C40-8W's are pretty well done too, so those would be next after the above two.

          Then maybe, I can attempt to finish up the NECR and VTR GP40/GP40-2 models.

            From my understanding, TS was working on something via Andrew Collins. Somerset, MQRX, and some other goodies.

              Yeah, I saw that and I knew for a bit that was the plan. Probably will wait for that newer model to work with.

                If you’re really wanting to, that MEC C40-8W could be updated to use the newer model that came with the ethanol trainset, though I think it looks good as is. The Vermont railway GP38 looks sharp.

                  Didn't even realize the MEC unit was on the older C40-8W. Now I need to take a look to see if I posted the right photo, or if I never swapped it over to the newer C40 model.
