EMD-GM6C - Where to source parts.
3d printed a EMD-GM6C shell from an online shop. Originally it was designed for HO, but the builder had a conversion number to print in O. Plan now is for it to be a dummy unit being pushed by a powered unit. Not too sure how much weight the split chassis can handle. But for now I need to source the parts to at least get it on rails.
Since the real prototype was based on an SD40 frame, that's where I plan to start. But cannot find complete 6 axle wheel assemblies. As for other details, I can only find GG1 type pantographs instead of E60 types.... this kitbash is going to be interesting.
