Outstanding work and precise modeling'... I am in need of cab interiors for two EMD F7s, by WIlliams. Do you think your schematic will work in a F7? Either way, I thank you very much for posting the print out... I half assed tried making an interior out of paper, but wasn't too successful.. Looking forward to trying yours'... 😉

Thanks QuarterGauger, my plans should be pretty close for your EMD F7’s. I don’t remember where the electronics sit inside the shell of a Williams F7 locomotive but post your build photos so we can see how it turns out.

Earlier in this thread PRR had a great lead on a detailed interior from P&D Hobby Shop. This kit might work better if you don’t want to scratch build an interior out of basswood or stryene. You can find it by going to their website and searching for EMD F A unit cab kit part #PDP5790K. I tried but could not find any online images of whats included inside this brass kit.
