I have decaled and added the various grab irons and railings
to the N8A. I did cut off all of the
rungs on the ladder except the one that is near the top railing. I used Model Flex Paint from Badger to paint
the model. I have found I can order individual
two ounce bottles from them via Amazon for $6.95 each, with not shipping costs.
Mt Vernon car shops makes a nice decal set for Conrail Cabooses and should have
everything you need to do it correctly.
I decided to cobble together all of the lettering from carious sets I
had on hand. I used an Old Accu-Cal
Multi set, Microscale Conrail diesel set, Microscale Penn Central caboose set
and Penn Central Historical Society caboose set.
Here is the Conrail N8A next to an as delivered New Haven NE-6 in it delivery paint scheme. |
You can see the new smaller windows, I simply masked the supplied window material to create new smaller window. The added side vents around the window are also visible. |
