Reply to "What did you do on your layout today?"

Added 2 older Atlas switchers to the roster and immediately tore into one in an attempt to improve it's looks.  The black NYC SW8 became an experiment to see if mounting the windows flush could be accomplished.  By separating the clear plastic into individual panes, they can be massaged with a file to tight fit back into their appropriate openings.  Once installed they also give the slight illusion that the plastic cab walls are thinner than they actually are.

Next on the agenda is to replace all the yellow colored plastic railings and grab irons that almost look translucent.   NYC practice never painted the coupler cut levers yellow anyway.  I hope to fill in some of the nothingness of the coupler opening in the pilot for more realism too.  Loads of fun in store while I wait on my ERR order that both these little jewels will receive.
