Unpowered

I work for Norfolk Southern and my dad, who spent 38 years with the L&N and CSX, gave me the idea to build a gscale engine with the numbers of the first engine I ever ran on. I wonder if anybody sold an unpowered GE engine kit I could build and paint myself.

Not 100% sure of what you are requesting exactly. MTH has released some dummy in-powered Dash 8 models, some painted for NS. They are ready to run though.

I'm not familiar with anyone making any kits for modern GE engines. There are some new guys selling 3D printed stuff with varying levels of completeness. I guess you could qualify some as kits. I don't believe there's any GE's? Maybe I missed it though?

I build scratch engines for myself and if you want to get ideas, maybe you could look thru the kit bashing posts here on the forum. Others here are and have built models as well.

You could contact the guys making 3D models and see if they'll make whatever model you're after exactly.

Mark Dashnaw maybe? here's a listing of his:

all of them here maybe?
