Who does the D&M 44 tonner belong too? I'd like to get in touch with them about paint colors, decals, all that

I custom painted the GE 44 tonner. As far as the paint I used, it was Tamiya acrylic. The decals are a different story. Those are Walthers alphabet which have long been out of production. I just had enough to use on this model. The engine itself is currently produced by Rapido . It has been modified as I removed the cab interior. Then I installed a bigger speaker and cut open the side windows to help the sound as well as added a little weight to help with traction.

@@4FlyRockets What Tamiya paints specifically did you use? I'm trying to paint a multitude of RS2's and 3's and would love to know what worked for you!

@@hjmiller2689 The top I used X9 brown. The sides I actually made a mistake and used a medium grey. I should have went with a much lighter grey if you check what it really looked like.

Where did the two tone D&M decals come from?
