Kato's Alco RS-3 diesel locomotive was purchased second hand a long time ago. When I removed the paint, the body was dissolved with solvent, which was ruined. The power was strong, so I decided to put the cheap Bachman RS-3 body on the back, and then backman parts shop.

It's a little late, but I took a look at KATO USA's SDP40F. I was quite interested as this was my first time making a model. SDP40F is very similar to EMD FP45, so I thought it wouldn't be made into a model, but Kato-san did his best.

Although it is a foreign model, I received Kato's Siemens ACS-64. I'm impressed. Last fall, I had a chance to see the actual car, and the atmosphere of the actual car was recreated well. Although it has not been driven yet (lol), it is possible to recreate a modern Amtrak detention track.

I suddenly started repairing my Bachmann E60CP a few days ago, and I suddenly started repairing my Bachmann E60CP. The N-gauge base is from around 1984, so the facial expressions are somewhat different. A few days ago, I covered the driver's cab window with a small putty and felt the number board too.

I've been interested in it since it was announced, so I couldn't help but (lol) Made in Inter Mountain, USA. The result is pretty good. The grill on the top side is working hard, using separate parts, but there are also some drawbacks because it is a separate part. It's pretty easy to remove (lol) The handrail is a bit too protruding though
