[Accrs-o] F Unit Modeling

[ACCRS O Scale list]

To follow-up on the discussion from yesterday . . .


Below is some prototyping for the EMD F7-E7 cab.   There are two foundation sketches used for this and two angles which I don’t have.  The All-Nation model appears to be very close to this and perhaps we can dimension those to see what those are and to match against.

Does anyone have a digital angle tool such as this – this might be able to measure across the window planes,  maybe not the window center post.  Another possible option is to visit Niles and get some field measurements from the real one.

I also found some EMD drawings in the CSRM archives from AT&SF for a F7A.  I think they are open again.

The first angle is that of the window center post – show here.   Might difficult to actually measure this accurately.

Second angle needed is across the window planes.
