Tony Fernandez General This would make a fun kitbash model. In HO scale, I'd start with a MDC/ROUNDHOUSE RPO body (MDC end ladders make good extra windows); scratchbuild the radiators, and use ATHEARN blue-box GP9 grilles for the air intakes. For powering the model, a BACHMANN 44-ton diesel's mechanism and underframe would work nicely. 8/31/2014 2:50:21 PM
