Wonderful collection of equipment… (http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)

How about something in the RS-1 range. Like a frame and short hood section to go with the USA S-4 parts. I need a couple of RS-1’s for my Spokane International Railroad.

Chuck, my plan is to do every single ALCo engine, so I will be doing the RS-1 eventually. That being said I’m currently going through all of the Century series now,which i’m about half way through 4/9

415 waiting on a printer

420 - basically done

C424 - Basically done

425, 430 - basic parts are done, minor changes required

C628 - currently doing the test prints

C630 - requires minimal redesign on the long hood sections

C636 - haven’t even looked at the drawing in over a year

C855 - havent started yet

I do plan on a boxcab either the 300 or 400 before getting back to the RS series

WOW, you could have a whole industry there. I am sure many folks would a this Alco or a that Alco. It would be a nice source of extra income.

Edit fur Microslop spell chequer

Great progress Mark. Do you have a ballpark range for pricing you can share ?(http://largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)

Looks good Mark

Started this on Saturday

ALCo C-415

looks great!

You sure do nice work, Mark!

Yup, thems real nice. I am not a diesel fan, so I don’t know how many vents a such and such has, or how many accessory doors, or fans, or what not. But they look good to my eye.

The damn shark

part 2 of 5 main body pieces

part 3 is on for an overnight print

If you hadn’t said you were going to make the Damn Shark, we wouldn’t have been asking you about them damn Sharks. (http://largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-smile.gif)

Third piece printed overnight (7 hrs on the printer) I made 1 side with rivets and 1 without to see the difference, looks like i’m adding the rivets to the other side

Thanks Mark. It makes me happy to see progress on the Damn Shark.

Yes, I think rivets would be a good idea.

Onto the next project as the rest of the shark prints, working on wheelsets for the Century 628

and no I don’t think the painters tape will be strong enough to hold this together

I am interested in how you work out the C trucks. I have a project in mind that will need C trucks, and I bought a pair of 3 axle, USA power blocks.
