Album: Construction photos

Cab detail, including the Detail Associates #1902 vent on the cab side and #2314 windshield wipers, and a Details West #157 firecracker antenna. A second firecracker antenna with the base removed was used to represent the EOT antenna over the engineer's side numberboard, with the half-circle ground plane fabricated from 0.010" styrene. The triangular rotary beacon stand over the conductor's side numberboard was scratchbuilt. In front of that, what appears to be the remains of conduit that once ran to the rotary beacon, fabricated from bits of wire. The horn was from the parts bin, but I believe it originated from either an Atlas GP38 or a Proto2000 GP38-2.
