@EricTrainMan posted:It still baffles me that no one has done a chop nose GP9 in O scale. This would seem like a no brainer given how many roads had or still have them.
The problem with that is, EMD delivered VERY FEW "low nose" GP9 model locomotives, and I believe only the Southern Pacific RR received them. All other GP9 units with the so-called "chop nose" where all modified, i.e. "chopped" by the individual railroads, and each RR tended to "chop" the short nose differently. So,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,how would 3rd Rail model such varied models?
