Here you go Jake... What do you think?
In these two pictures you can see the Pantograph support I had to replace ...it is the lighter colored one... I couldn't find my spares...so I fabricated that out of sprue
Both sets of Pantographs were in top shape...no bends ...no flaws
The engine itself is not bad...but I'm still not thrilled with the paint

Heyho Alpha bet your happy..looks like it worked out fine...can't make my mind up on the paint.. never been to the states and seen any of these trains up close..my opinion might be a bit more valid then.....

Yeah...I actually am Jake.... What I had first thought was donation material...turned out to be a very nice complete set ...which in a way...makes me hesitate to change anything else on itJake79 wrote:Heyho Alpha bet your happy..looks like it worked out fine...can't make my mind up on the paint.. never been to the states and seen any of these trains up close..my opinion might be a bit more valid then.....
Since you don't have an opinion on the Paint... I might go the route of flipping a coin It's difficult when something is nice and ugly at the same time
