XCN 8718 - SW7 Switcher

Broadway Limited doesn't offer any Canadian paint schemes for this loco, so I decided to try my hand at a re-paint. I've been waiting over 2 years for the release of this switcher, and I wasn't about to wait another month to order an undecorated model. The LHS (Local hobby shop) had a PRR version that I decided would make the easiest base to start with. Most of the decals are from Microscale, but the smaller ones at the front and back had to be made. I traced over a CN number sheet in Illustrator to get the right font for the numbers, then printed them out on SuperCal white. I added the sunshades, but still need to add MU hoses. Those are on order.

This photo was taken on the new section of the layout, so the tracks haven't been weathered or ballasted.
