Oh my god. Becky, look at the back of that F40.

So Craig, who did the Canadian Hep exstention cover? Saying it is Shapeways isn't much help.

I've been working on a quick project for a friend the past little while. This is a Kato F40ph reworked with some minor modifications to represent a rebuilt VIA Rail unit. Next up is the Renaisance paint scheme, (after the Shapeways rearend is cleaned and attached).

It's a really nice piece. I opted for FUD. Didn't want to pay for the FED. I know it's only a few bucks more but as it was with shipping it was painful to purchase.

My only complaint is that I think the angle of the back walls is too acute so the back of it comes too far out over the coupler but I believe it will still work. The fit on the modified she'll is excellent. The details on the part align perfectly with the details on the shell so the look is spot on.

Thanks Craig,I've been looking for that part it seems like forever. I did a price check I think FUD is a better deal.

It just came out if the cleaner. I can post some pics if you want to see the FUD for your self.

If that stops your cat, then you have a sad cat indeed. Cardboard to the ceiling is needed for my cat and even then it just takes that as a challenge...
