AtlasO Zephyr Surgery

Hey Malcolm,  any chance that atlas sells the dome unit separate.   It has been a bear to source the necessary pieces for the remaining two Pullman domes on the Northcoast limited.  acquired some midlands kits but theys just too nice to gut out for parts

Progress

Malcolm, Things are really coming together on this car!  Incredible!

That's for sure. 

Great job 

I am agreed!

Almost done!!!!

It looks just like the prototype!  Gorgeous work, Malcolm!

Almost done except some touch-up and clean-up (need to vacuum the carpet).

Sa-weet, Malcolm. 

Man that turned out nice! Awesome job Malcolm

Very well done Malcolm.  Thanks for giving us the details.   The canopy really came out well. Its tough to make plastic look like sheet metal, but your tape/burnish method really nailed it. 

Especially awesome work for a non-available car.  Killer Job!!!!!

  Remember this is from a guy who hates domes !.......   JUST BUILDING THEM OR SOURCING PARTS.

Very nice work! It takes some serious passion to cut one of those cars. I love how it came out. When it is 100% complete, can you give us a video, or a picture on your layout?

Malcolm,  Incredible work!

Thanks everyone! Here are last pics, I added the rear uncoupling lever after pics. The track lights will b e added tomorrow and it will be boxed for its journey.

Thanks Malcolm for working on the Sierra Hotel.  It looks great and I am looking forward to seeing it up close when it comes to visit.  If anyone wants to see it run, I'm sure it will make an appearance at the Rockford O Scaler's open house on November 5.

Beautiful, Malcolm. 

Just occurred to me that wasn't one of your own cars. I have been following this and it truly appears to be a labor of love. You've done an outstanding job.
