Excuse me, but I do believe that my inner gimmie pig is coming out. SantaFeBuff, is there any chance you will release that NS SD7/9? 58 is my favorite number (for anything) and having a loco numbered 58 would be delightful.:D

I wouldn't have posted to tease unless I wanted to see people cry.

But I didn't. I have Ben's permission, and it's already been submitted to TPR Download Depot. Once it makes it, I'll make an announcing thread with an update on my website. (which you can visit by clicking my signature banner)

The prototype is actually an EMD SD9m. It was an ex-Nickel Plate Road locomotive that was modified for modern use. Recently, Norfolk Southern as retired them all. So you won't find one anymore. Here's the picture I used throughout the skin of the real #58:

Not exact with weathering, I wanted it realitively clean since the photo was in Winter, the dirty time for some locomotives.

A lot of details are lacking, so I call it a "Duplicate" skin. After all, It's not like I'm going to ring in an order for custom parts!


hert,
Awesome dock! I love it!

Cheers,
Joshua
 
Cool, I can't wait to see it either, is it going to be released somewhere other than the DLS? Or will it be done before September 1st?
