Product Description
This is an HO Scale model of the DM&IR SDM locomotives, rebuilt by the DM&IR from EMD SD9s and SD18s. These locomotives served the DM&IR up to the 2004 merger with CN and were sold to several other railroad around the US including the EJ&E.
This model includes the long hood, cab with number board inserts, and nose. The body shell is designed to sit on the frame and walkway of either a Proto 2000 SD7/9 or an Atlas SD24. With either donor model, remove the hood, cab, and the cab subframe/battery boxes, leaving only the walkway, hand rails, and pilots. The modeler will also need to supply all of the necessary detail parts to complete it including radiator/dynamic brake fans, hood grab irons and ladders, lift rings, radiator intake grilles, and window glazing.
Recommended parts to complete model:
- 1 Proto 2000/Walthers SD7 or SD9 or Atlas SD24 (not the yellow box version)
- Plano Model Products #14870 SD7/9 Intake Screen Grille
- Plano Model Products #14873 SD7/9 End Ladders
- Cannon & Co #1707 36" radiator fans (or equivalent from other mfg).
- Atlas SD24 Radiator Fans #750240
See example photos on the C&IM SD18 for how the body mounts to the frame.
