Hello fellow Ebayers! Here is another magnificently weathered locomotive by Weathered Works #122,,, Up for bid is 1 Brand New 2 Rail O Scale Atlas QSI Sound Soo Line EMD SD40 Locomotive #748 still being used within the CP Rail network. Here is a Locomotive that has never been duplicated, the EMD SD40, probably one of the most popular, most manufactured locomotive ever produced! This is the maroon scheme that Soo Line did years ago. I gave this one the usual grunge, as it would have been seen for grain and coal service. This Locomotive was disassembled, then it was completely faded, rusted & weathered, the stock coupler mounts are flimsy so they were strengthened and improved, the coupler mounts were moved inward for close coupling and a more prototypical look, the huge pilot hole was boxed, filled and then Kadee 805 couplers were bolted on at the correct height, the trucks were disassembled and the sideframes were milled to move them in closer to the wheels to give it a narrower look, it allows the brakeshoes to be on the wheels and not floating in mid air, visually the difference is amazing, the wheels were checked with a NMRA standards gauge to be correct or adjusted, and then it was reassembled. Comes with a 2 person crew as well as a full interior. Pictures do not do this loco justice, it is a must see in person! The detail read more
