Richard, not heard of Galesburg, will have to look into that but suspect it's too far east to get to next year, I wan to concentrate a bit more on the westerly areas and begin to head north a little toward San Francisco, maybe Seattle, possibly as far north as Transcon 1.
Back to the GEVO, all bar one or two lifting brackets I've used up all the etch work. Some parts are just tacked into place, such as the extended cover for the dynamic brakes which only pertains to certain UP and BNSF models (I've not decided on a final # for this model) and the module behind the IGBT enclosure, no idea what it does but it needs an overlay wrapped around it to finish it off.
The cab door can be posed open if you bend the hinges, though I'll rethink that as bending them will distort them to perhaps a different design to allow both options, the door frame does have the thin gutter all the way around, very hard to stop it filling with solder when fitting, and maybe more so when painting. The door isn't really thick enough, needs another layer inside for the structural beams, more modern doors appear much thicker than older ones, probably due to new crash regulations. There is an option for a overlay without the window but I used that half etch part to repair something else.
Number boards need a little tweak to make them deeper, 0.3-0.4mm or so and the windscreens need a tweak, moving outward a touch, maybe up a little and the corner radius easing, also need to level up the wiper holes
The NS bespoke brow headlight package didn't fair well, it might be recoverable just to show it's part of the package, I'll re look at it tomorrow.
Quite a few edges need more radius, those'll come when the cab side overlays are added, time to think about those and the cabinet overlays too, not sure I need all the holes back there, it makes folding the shell quite a chore.
I've also just spotted that the anti climber does not have the cut out over the MU socket, later variants have a strengthening plate over here as well and some engines have extra plates that bend down to the pilot plate.
Overall it's achieved what it was supposed to, other than the windscreen the rest of the angles and calculations worked with only minor trimming here and there to make it all fit.
