I never bought the maersk train. But after watching one tootle around our club layout I was inspired to see if I could build one from what I had. It was never going to be blue and grey, but having the panels in red lead me to that colour.
Here is an progress shot, one element type needs replacing with the correct colour, otherwise it’s ready to roll.
And of course, it stiill needs lettering and numbering. Any tips on that would be appreciated.
And yes. I’m aware the GP-40-2 never had a high nose variant and the SD-40-2, which did, properly had Co trucks. Perhaps I should splurge on some of zephyr’s truck frames...
