Album: IAIS 801 - M420R

I used oils to represent a light coat of rust on top of the cab and nose. As with the radiator grill, the faded paint on the Detail Associates #1603 P-5 horn gives away 801's heritage.

After the construction photos were shot, I realized that the prototype's grab iron on top of the nose on the conductor's side had been replaced at some point with a homemade grab, so I did the same.

The Kaslo windshield wipers were replaced with A-Line #29200 wipers.
