Building An HO Scale ALCO RS27 Part 1 | Repaint And Decals

This is part one of an HO Scale RS27 build which covers painting and decaling. This model was commissioned by a customer wanting a "Protofreelanced" model of an RS27 locomotive operated by Genesee & Wyoming's First Coast Railroad. Since FCRR does not own any RS27s, one of FCRR's GP7s was used as a reference for details such as weathering. The model has ESU LokSound and an array of lighting functions.
