Hello all, I'm making some mods to my USAT GP38 SP, and have an updated 3d printed plow that I"m going to install. I'm trying to find paint that closest matches to that of the grey on those SP's. Does any have any recommendations? Thanks!

Hi all, I’m looking for a Bachmann K-27 in flying Rio Grande. May consider Western or Southern as well. Thanks! I can pay cash or I also have a USAT GP38 Southern Pacific and/or USAT GP38 Rio Grande I’d be willing to include in a trade + cash. Thanks!

Awesome, such good information. Thanks a lot Chuck, I really appreciate that. I'm actually in the city - I've been into HO and O previously, and this is my first endeavor into G scale. This is actually my first locomotive purchase.

Hi everyone, I am a brand new member to the site, but have been following for some time. I'm hoping to get some advice on repairing (taking out) broken plastic details pieces on a USAT GP38. I recently purchased a used GP38 in SP livery that is good cosmetic and operation condition, but there are multiple broken plastic pieces. Some with a little bit of the plastic sticking out and some that were a clean break, flush with the body but plastic still stuck inside. I was wondering some advice on the best way to remove these pieces so I can install the new detail pieces. I'm with some small pliers that I can get out the ones that are sticking out slightly, but how the heck can I remove the flush broken pieces. I attached some pieces. Thank you guys so much in advanced and looking forward to talking to ya'll. Mike
