This is an Athearn SW1500 that I custom painted/detailed myself. Started this engine back in January 2011 but didnt finish it until the fall. Besides just painting the locomotive, I added the correct walkways ladders and sanders to it. Cut the pilots out added the sand pipes through the cab and added a cooler as well. The loco is even painted in the EXACT shade of blue the URR uses (a friend works in their loco shops and told me what color/brand to use). I tried to get this engine to look as close to the real URR 5 as I could-used these two photos as a refrence. www.rr-fallenflags.org/urr/urr5as.jpgwww.rr-fallenflags.org/urr/urr5s.jpgAttachments:

Heres a photo of the cab end showing the sand pipes inside the cab as well as the cooler. Also added the standby heater power supply plugs above the coupler directly below the walkway. Only one side of the pilot was cut out just like on the real URR 5. Attachments:

A top down view showing some of the roof modifications I made. Finished the paint job by weathering the engine. Oh yes forgot that I added the fireman side mirror and patched out the two small windows on the cab side. Attachments:

Wow! Nice job! Your efforts to capture the effect really paid off. And, in that natural lighting, the blue sure does look 'dead on'.

Thank you for the comments. The biggest problem that I ran into was trying to find an ISO 9002 logo in decal for for the locomotive. Since then I found the exact logo they applied to their engines and am planning on making it into decal form. Also working on other URR decals so far have made an exact match to the lettering found on the Atlas MP15DC. I have done several URR engines but I have never done any Bessemer power myself. Planning on making the WA set of F7s 727 721B and 728 as they looked near the end of their careers so that should be fun.

Heres an N scale bay window caboose I painted as URR C-102 about 2 years ago. While I have made numerous URR pieces in HO I made this caboose to sit on top of a plaque that my dad recieved from the Union Railroad after he retired from there. The real Union Railroad caboose number C-102 is an ex B&LE car. Attachments:
