Soo Line In Ho (for Jordan!)

[Old Buffer]

Jordan,
Went to the club (Spalding) and saw these, thought you may be interested, he's a big fan of the yankie stuff and got a lot of loco's and rolling stock, all in H.O.

Jordan,
You've lost me with all those letters and numbers, but if you mean the one without a cab, I think he said it has been modified, and it needs a bit more work doing to it.

Yes that's the one; it's a Cab-less (otherwise known as a"B-Unit") locomotive that was used in multiple, although naturally it wasn't allowed to lead a train; the Soo Line had just this one example of that type (originally built by the Burlington Northern), so a model of it is also very rare and unusual. To make the model is far more than just removing where the cab would have been, though, so I can appreciate the work that has gone/is going into that!

Me too, a top-notch piece of work it seems to me. Incidentally I've got the parts here for doing an SD10 from the Blueline SD9, which should be great fun...
