Atlas U23B Union Pacific
Author: Chestnut

Here's an Atlas UP U23B i added some detail parts to and weathered. I picked up an identical unit with a different number I picked up both for really cheap at a train show. I added sunshades, firecracker antenna, 3 chime lesslie horn moved to the top of the cab, plow, MU lines, miror, Sergent Couplers, and chain going to the brake cylinder.
  I used a black wash and lightly weathered the top with an airbrush. Thanks for looking!

If it wasn't sitting on a bench, I'd swear it was the real thing!! I especially like those couplers.
Has it got sound? And if it does, how do you like it?

Hey Russ, yeah I'm not near my layout right now wanted to get pictures other than the workbench. This is an old early 2000 release with no sound. I thought about putting sound in it at one point. Thanks for the nice compliment!

Thanks for the reply Matt. When you get ready for sound try a ESU-Lok Sound with a mini speaker like the one
above your post in a RS-1.
