Custom HO Scale ScaleTrains Rivet Counter BNSF Dash 9-44CW

[@joshuamasterman87]

Was parked at a truck stop in Washington a few weeks ago and saw that unit pass by but didn't catch the number. Nice work and thanks for sharing - now I can try to build one in N scale.

Also noticed the Montana- based layout. Love driving through Montana and seeing all that stuff. Delivered lumber in Bozeman a couple weeks ago and unloaded next to a couple of idling EMDs and it was cool. Working on my rookie layout based in Illinois / Missouri, but next I want to build an MRL (RIP)/BNSF layout based on the line between St.Regis, Paradise, and Thompson Falls.

Fantastic work! I photographed this engine on two separate occasions.

Since I’m a BNSF employee I appreciate your effort. Very typical of how these engines are shoved out the door no matter what they look like.

[@kylescustomtrains]

Thanks! BNSF definitely seems to be a bit more lenient about how they're locomotives look compared to other railroads but it makes it that much more interesting to model that's for sure

[@bobafett2243]

Wow, that looks great. Would have loved to see that weathering video.

[@kylescustomtrains]

Honestly thinking about making one for myself, once I do I'll definitely consider documenting the process

[@3rdTrickGang]

Got the old FrankenBonnet, looks great man!

[@kylescustomtrains]

Thanks! Glad you like it!

[@sernajrlouis]

Awesome 👍😎👍

[@Gamer_Bubs]

i saw this on ebay and dang 700 dollers!?!? thats a bit crazy

[@spaceship092v3]

4729 passed me a few hours ago (sadly, I didn't see it, but it did pass skykomish railcam)

[@joshthetrainfan]

I have something similar, except it’s a Bluebox dummy. Also, where did you get that shop building in intro?

[@kylescustomtrains]

I'm not entirely sure, it's a part of my club layout that's been there longer than I have. More than likely a Walthers kit I'd say

[@joshthetrainfan]

@ okay I’ll look into that. I’m trying to build a railroad museum for a couple of old cars I have.

[@TobiasL1000]

Also international shipping?

[@kylescustomtrains]

Unfortunately I am not shipping internationally at this time

[@David-pn3yp]

Paperwork on the dash

[@southernprojectsyt6340]

for that rag of an engine. should pay someone to take the rebuilt scrap. after all that's what it currently is on the bnsf railway.😂

[@kylescustomtrains]

As long as it gets the job done it doesn't have to be a looker 🤣

[@phaloxx]

Dude, $500 on eBay for this….you people need serious help. Yes it’s nice, yes it’s custom but goddamn. You could buy almost 3 brand new motors for that. If you can make this kinda money though Kyle, you keep doing it brotha. A fool and his money are always parted.

[@BNSF1848]

Up to 700 as I type

[@grantv2313]

What have you modeled lately? You ever worked on a project like this? From someone that has, $500 would have been a deal. Sounds like it went for more. A normal one from factory is going to be over $300.

[@phaloxx]

@@grantv2313 I’m currently working on 11. Yes 11 shells at the same time. So yeah, I know full well what the time invested versus what something is worth. Most people can’t or won’t invest the time to build something like this. I get it. Ive got over 80 hours into what my rendition of a gp70 would or should have looked like.
