Outstanding work on this power conversion!  Just great!

Did you ever add the extra detail on yours from the pictures I sent you of my brass one yet ?

I also already have your Re-built version and another Kato SD-90 that I haven't started on yet.
In the near future I plan to get another for the South Shore version, just for something a bit different.

Hi - yes!  I actually started designing the parts but got stuck on some of the details so I'm working on getting some additional close-ups.  I have the walkway areas done and those fins just behind the pantograph housings.  The heat exchangers are basically done but it's just some small details I need to figure out before I consider them done.  Funny thing about Milwaukee Road electrics is that they're just as unique as humans.  No two locos are the same.  For instance those roof details - I can find at least four variations of roof-top accessories but there's probably more.

When you're ready to do the South Shore version let me know - I'll do a pantograph re-design so you've got the right ones for those units.  Unlike the Milwaukee Road Joes, the South Shore pans tuck neatly behind the cabs, and of course they don't have the iconic hoops to re-load a loose catenary line.

Cheers -Mike

Sounds good Mike.
Yes, would want the correct pantographs for the South Shore version.

If you need addition pictures of the top side detail on my Overland Brass Little Joe let me know, can get closer Macro shots.
Keep one Nikon Koolpix B700 just for pictures, the other for videos.  Got tired of always changing the shutter speed and such for pictures, only to have to change back for videos.

LOL !

HA, Know the feeling, I still have 20+ builds to do for myself from more of Jasons steamer castings, Shapeways, GHQ, Out Of The Box Models and a couple others.

This Little Joe build is so easy to do, you'll love it !
Don't forget to get an additional SD-90 truck for the extra two drivers needed.
And if you need top detail pictures, I can send all you need, unless Mike starts 3Ding them, then I'll start buying from him myself !
And do post pictures ---------------- ( ;
