Arnold's N scale diesel switcher, EMD SW-1, has been on sale for over a year. The store seemed to be running out of stock, so I decided to order it from overseas before it ran out. The name is Arnold, but the actual sales […]

Canada's Bombardier LRC. I was able to see it once at the Montreal station during a family trip. Then one day, while looking through old railway magazines in the middle school library, I learned of the existence of an Amtrak version of LRC (lol) Amtrak.

Rohr Turbo Liner Production Part 2 (lol) Last time I wrote about the 3D output, so this time I'll start by fixing the unevenness on the surface. At first, I thought I could get away with just sanding it down, but plastic is surprisingly hard and it's difficult to sand.

It's been 30 years since I saw the Turbo Liner at Grand Central Terminal Station and fell in love at first sight (lol) For some reason, there is no sign that this Turbo Liner will ever be made into a model, so I decided to study 3D and try to make it myself. 3D printing time is quite long with full size N scale.

It's a little late, but I took a look at KATO USA's SDP40F. I was quite interested as this was my first time making a model. SDP40F is very similar to EMD FP45, so I thought it wouldn't be made into a model, but Kato-san did his best.

Although it is a foreign model, I received Kato's Siemens ACS-64. I'm impressed. Last fall, I had a chance to see the actual car, and the atmosphere of the actual car was recreated well. Although it has not been driven yet (lol), it is possible to recreate a modern Amtrak detention track.

November 11th is Veterans Day, a national holiday in the United States and other countries. Simply put, it is a day to pay respect to all active duty and retired military personnel. The veteran (=veteran) paint is based on this feeling. Amtrak also has P42 number 42.

A flyer with an image was sent to me by a wholesaler in the United States. I made the image smaller because it was an advertisement/reprint without permission. That's not the problem (^^; I saw the actual car last year, and I think the atmosphere has been recreated for the most part. As expected from Mr. Kato.

The Amtrak paintwork for the N scale Atlas GP-7 and GP-9 released this July has arrived. Quite cute. It's a Phase 1 paint that was used around the 70's. The black handrail is GP7, and the silver handrail is GP9. The basic painting
