Product Description
Replacement cab to convert a Kato F40PH into a model of Amtrak's EMD F69PH-AC demo units. Similar to the cab on Metra's F40PHM-2 "Winnebago" units, but there are some slight detail differences in lights, doors, etc.
To install, use a razor saw to carefully cut the existing cab off the Kato shell, following the molded seam behind the cab doors. File and sand the cut edges square, then dry-fit the replacement cab. Note: The cab has been designed with internal cross-bracing to prevent it from warping. Cut these and sand them flush before proceeding.
After making any adjustments for fit, cement styrene reinforcement strips around the inside edges of the shell. Apply CA along the joint and align the cab carefully before pressing together. Allow to cure fully before continuing work on the model.
