~ BNSF Dash-9 ~
The model of BNSF #4886 started out as an Aristo-Craft Dash-9. The ready-to-run model is a great start, however it is a very generic model supporting multiple road names. More specific details were added to make the unit into a more prototypical model.
Cab sunshades, mirrors, and numberboards were added. All handrails and grab irons were painted green and white. The pilot was detailed with MU cables, air hoses, and a snowplow. The HiAd trucks include airlines, shock absorbers, and a proper brake system. I also added some under body piping detail.
