Something I just threw together for my layout. Saw some pictures of switchers like this online.

I think I released these, I'm not sure. If not I'll try to grab them off of my backup.

Nawww, there's always room for more than one creator's content, I think yours came out pretty decent . Have you skinned any other locomotives for your project?

yeah, your right. thanks for the compliments. you made me realize i forgot to add the numbers to the side also so i just did that. i did a tilcon sw1500 based off a photo online. pretty close to the one gandalf0444 did. also working on a new haven gp40...that one's a little harder lol. other than that i'm brand new to reskinning.

ok so are these used for mow or switching coaches around an amtrak yard, or both? anyone know? i was surprised to see the sw1500 in this paint. usually i always saw them with the gray/black roof

Mostly for MOW...they were moving ballast around in OSB awhile back...but I am sure they can double to move things around the yard..
