Under The Hood: The Gi-Raffe Express GXII! | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Or the second center cab converted to dual overhead and diesel power...

I've had this shell knocking about the workshop for years, and decided to dude it up into Giraffe Express livery and add a pantograph...

The mounting stud is "borrowed" from a donor Williams GG1...

Shell painted in GX blue.

Railings prepped for some light yellow paint:

Pan and railings installed!

Stickered, a chassis borrowed from my PRR centercab and on display down at the A&M depot!
