Now that I've got your attention...I've posted some photos of my latest project - an A-B FP-7 set. The A unit is from AM and the B-unit is a Wabash Valley shell over an AM drive. The real deficiency to these shells is the way the back end looks, which is completely devoid of detail. I wanted these models to look as good as their SHS contemporaries so I went ahead and detailed them to match the outstanding look of the SHS units that they'll be running in consist with. Suprisingly, it wasn't that difficult to add the rear door and lift ring details. the most challenging part was squaring off the angled end of the Wabash B-unit.
You can see the photos here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/S-Scale/photos/album/1892365752/pic/list I still have a bunch of stuff left to do to finish this pair, but most of the hard work is behind me. Hopefully, DPH will restock its line of vertical slit Farr air grills soon and I can add them to the B-unit. A little waethering, DCC, sound and lights and they'll be ready for service.
