A lot of nice skins! Shame there isn't a U30C/33C/36C model out there.
GP35 for my fictional, the GP9 white/blue/red combo from my earlier skin didn't really work on newer gen hood units so I decided to borrow ARR's black and gold scheme...
the CRNE is set in Alaska, and both are owned by the Department of Transportation in the timeline I'm modelling, so it's not too much to justify.

Thank you! The U33/36C skins are easy to do, except for GN/NP. I was just using the stealth C30-7 to skin it up, then placing it onto the NW C30-7.
I wonder if there could be ATSF U33Cs and U36Cs, especially in bookends
I've tried a bookend version of the U33C the ATSF had, but the textures were WAY too dark, to the point where I couldn't even see what I was doing.
Anyways, the CD&N bought 40 GP38-2's from the MILW near it's collapse. 20 were retrofitted with Flexicoil-C trucks to become "SD38-2M's" for long drag freights not uncommon to the portion of the CD&N in Minnesota, where vast amounts of ore were being transported from mine to port. A technical problem with the SD38's is that the trucks clip into the pilot, but it's not noticeable. I may have to move the attachment point backwards a bit.

That looks awesome!
Thanks for the complements guys, but I'll have you know that those white nose stripes took way longer than expected!
So, after years of complaining I finally decided to tackle this myself. I (along with some friends assistance) created NJT GP40PH0-2Bs #4200-4215 and NJT GP40-2s 4300-4304

Nice looking modifications. Assuming the base model you used was the freeware CSX GP40s then it would be lovely to see if you can attempt to get NS37's permission for a possible release.
.. i dived in your signature and came across a nice site with "quality content for all" .. although the locs i downloaded have a build <3.5, they look so very supersharp in my latest trs19.5 (build 5.0), i had to show here :
diorama rustdust with alco's by trainzplayer14 and baldwins by jdfvjcv ..

These are very good looking engines. How did you add the radiators to the locomotive?
