1/8th S4

Unread post by GP9R »

Hi all, just thought I'd share a couple pictures of my 1.5" scale ALCo S4. Its going to be painted for Marquette Ontonagon & Western. I still have to some final detailing on it before I can paint it. I'll post some more pictures tomorrow after it gets some use at the Mid Michigan Railroad Club.

This scale is very intriguing. Nice looking S4.

Im heavily leaning toward buying (or building) a Conrail GP40-2. Need to save my money tho!

I've always wanted a Conrail GP15-1 or a GP38, Patrick. A guy GP9R and I know has a nice Conrail B40-8 down in Florida. Save your pennies! 8)

A good friend and fellow SMRS member is having a Chessie GP15T built by West Bend. Quite a unique project. I would also like a CR GP15-1 in a scale such as that but at $15,000, it's gonna have to wait. Really nice looking S4 there Cam.
