Here is a Kato SD45 that I added detail parts to such as MU hoses, Signal Control Box, Lift Rings, Marker Lights, Sinclair Antenna. Also in locating the Signal Control Box in front of the Engineer, I filled the holes of the grabs on that side and drilled new ones on the fireman's side. Painted with Scalecoat II Black paint and lettered with Microscale's PC Set and Diesel Detailing Set.









Thanks for looking!

Looks like its ready to haul some heavy trains and acquire some weathering.

Nice looking SD Rick. Got any ALCO's to go with it?

No Alco's in PC right now. I just finished a PC GP40 and will be pairing it with a NH C425 that I am working on right now and then adding a GE U23b that I have. I have a few more undecorated C424's and C425's to paint up and they will be either WAB, PC, or PRR.

I also finished a NYC RS-32 and its picture is in the Alco Haulics thread. I have another one to finish and am starting on two NKP RS-36's.

Following standard PC practice the SD45 will be paired with an SD40 for use as leading units or helpers.

Do you have any pics of the NH C425 project? I am waiting for five C425's to arrive that I will be detailing as ex PRR/PC units.
