[DMRR WOLFE]

'Been busy designing a catalogue of EMD F-units so I haven't posted here in a while. Yes, plans will be coming soon!

You can check out my other F3 F7 And F9 MOCs on my Flickr photostream here: https://flic.kr/ps/3XxXXb 

Let know what you think of the design! 

THX!

Awesome studless build, I really like it!

[Selander]

Looks very good. 8-wide is SO much better to achieve an accurately looking Santa Fe locomotive 🙌👍👌

[Darkkostas25]

Astounding! I love your post from Reddit with all your EMD. Great detail from lower parts and bogies to its iconic noses  

[Feuer Zug]

What wonders one can build with new parts and going 8-wide. Excellent F9A model. Do we get a full consist to go with it, or at least more pictures of the FT in the background?

[Pelzer117]

Yes. Absolutely YES. This is how it should be. If this would be a Remake set, shut up and take my money.

Cant whait to see the classic Santa Fe colour version. 
Well done. Really.

[Man with a hat]

Wow, Impressive.

[Ts__]

Wow. I really like it. The shape is very well implemented, next level ;-)

Sure the Desgin also lives strongly from stickers, but I'm excited!

Amazing ! I'd love to see it in real

[Morgoth924]

Very well done! This is scale modelling!

[Murdoch17]

Fantastic work! You might give @SavaTheAggie and his design a run for his money if you did the standard Warbonnet! 

[Nikonissen]

Looks great, I love the sloped front which I have not seen before done like that. An interesting choice to use the standard LEGO buffer / coupling on the front instead of one og the old magnets or a Kadee-coupler.

It would've been cool to see you try to recreate some of the blue/yellow lines by building them instead of stickers.

But overall, a great model :D

Gorgeous MOC and very cool livery!

I really really like the Canadian Pacific, we have one of those old coaches on display at a park in town, extremely accurate your model is. 

[Krol Zmija Sebastian]

Saw the yellow, which reminded me of my Halo 3 armor color "Corral". The trains look good, like you have nature life among your tracks, too. I usually think any Train is a metro-type, honestly. Fancy that yours do not.

[A_Forest_of_Lego]

They all look amazing!

[Supplement_Creatif]

What an absolutely stunning locomotive! Hats off to you!

cheers,

This is great. Only problem being that a number of the parts - looking at windows, especially - don't exist in these colors. You could probably fudge a lot of it by just doing another paint scheme/railroad, but, like, the little triangular side windows?...  would probably need to be reevaluated. I dunno why, but Lego is ridiculously stingy when it comes to clear pieces...

Damn!

[DMRR WOLFE]

Thanks for all your comments on my blue-bodied Yellowbonnet! It's all been very encouraging and I've really appreciated what you've had to say!!

I'm nearly finished my Santa Fe F-unit fleet and will be uploading my F7 Bluebonnet renders in a new post tomorrow.  

Cheers!
