Time to add full length handrails.139CE6C2-F602-4FBD-BF9C-173E28FB1E9C

Wow, that looks sharp in UP colors.

I still haven't finished installing mine, actually. I went through a few iterations trying to match the gloss of my black paint to the factory BNSF paint, and then came up with something more pressing to do. Maybe I'll borrow your pic for the shapeways page, lol.

F91E252E-747B-452E-9F88-1CE0775C8E0DI added the handrails!

it took me a lot of tries to get the paint color similar to the mth grey they use on the Union Pacific. It would always look good wet, but when it dried, the color would darken. Although it’s not perfect, it’s good enough for me.

still waiting on screws for the Kadees to deliver. This will be my first Kadee coupler installation ever...wish me luck!
