W&LE GP-35 Highnose #2662 & #105 in 6 Wide

[BrickMusher]

Hei Trainfans,

 today I would like to introduce my GP-35´s. The Idea was born when I discovered this photo at railpictures.net

The real stuff

I liked the contrast of the red/yellow, and the black/orange livery. The build is traditional 6-wide and the very first beginning was very similar to Lego©´s GP-38. The upper part was somewhat more tricky, and especially the red/yellow pattern needed different changes before I was finally satisfied. Both Engines are equipped with two Motors and two weight-bricks to offer enough traction for long and heavy freight-trains.

Both GP´s run very reliable on two exhibitions in 2016

Enjoy, best regards

Nice looking pair of Geeps. The tall grasses give the idea of a rarely used railroad here.
