Sometimes our O scale model trains are very well done......nothing to improve. My MTH PRR 2-10-4 loco is one......but at $1000 it should be. But there are plenty of much less costly trains out there.....but many of them need some help to make them better. Often it's just a few small things. This is a pre-Bachmann Williams SD45 in Burlington CB&Q paint. Far from perfect.....but available for under $100 if you look a little.......worth the time and effort to improve it.
Not a lot of things WRONG......but plenty of room to make things better.
Many of the Williams locomotives decoration was simplified. This CB&Q is one of them. The 'cat whiskers' both front and back are missing. The Burligton Route logos on the cab sides are a bit small and kinda 'muddy' or blured some. These did not have glass in the cab windows and a body brace runs through the window area on each side that really looks odd!! So I plan on fixing a few of these things and add some detail paint and weathering.
Thanks
