Re: [CBQ] GP30 modeling tips

Hi Guys,

 Just wanted to say thanks for all of the info. I was looking at the Details West and Detail Associates for the Antennas. DA has a wipe antenna, DA 101802, that may work. If not I’ll put the Firecracker on in the correct location until I can find the proper part. For the horns I’ll go with the Details West DW AH-190 the two front bells are off but it’s close enough. The other one they have listed is AH-347 Shrouded 3-Chime CB&Q, GN. 

 Even though some operators may never know the difference in the details I’ll feel better knowing that they are as close as I can get them. 

Thank You All,

Randy Doman

Randall...Looking at photos in Holck's color pictorial, these are the following from 1968/69, all horns relocated:

945  quarter wave ant.  can't see horn

949  quarter wave ant.  two chime horn

955  quarter wave ant.  two chime horn

957  firecracker ant.     blat horn

948  quarter wave ant.  two chime horn

959  quarter wave ant.  two chime horn

970  quarter wave ant.  can't see horn

975(1964)  quarter wave and two chime

Spoor  vol 4:

952 quarter wave ant  two chime horn

These are just a few that I found. Also keep in mind that P2K did both versions of the GP30. The second order, 970-977 had the left rear of the cab slightly longer. 

Hope this helps a little moer.

Gordon
