Need some SD80MAC detail photos

Model Railroader Prototype information for the modeler
1

I am working on modeling a Conrail (now NS) SD80MAC using the Rail Power Products SD90 kit. I have quite a number of good photos and drawings of the easily visible areas, but nothing showing how all of the fuel tank details are laid out. If anyone has some good photos or links showing this area, I would really appreciate them. Thanks in advance.

Here’s a pic I found

I got them from this website here:

http://www.trainweb.org/conrail/models/models.htm

It’s a website that focuses on models of Conrail equipment. I’ve used their pictures and info for a good bit of my projects and my layout.

I hope this helps!

Thanks a bunch. I haven’t really searched this site much, but those are some much better shots than what I had for the fuel tank area. The real problem is that now I’m thinking about going basic black on my model instead of blue! And I already have the decals for either scheme. Tough decisions indeed!
