Here is a shot of 135A

Thanks Jim.

I should also have asked a question about a closeup photo of the louvers as my 135A has the chicken wire. But then again it might be easier just to change the number.  But that's not what I do...

    It is the same material used on the upper air intakes.  A thin
    photo-etch like that included with the High Liner kits would
    suffice, but since we are talikng 1/64th scale, it would probably
    need to be custom-made. Jim Sandrin

        Do you or anyone else have a close-up photo of the chicken wire.
        I wonder if it could be modeled.

            Hello All
            The CB&Q F units from the FTs all the way up to the F-7s had
            the red strips framed in black the only ones that didn't run
            the full length of the car body were  the F-3 phase 2
            (modelers term) were the ones with the chicken wire between
            the portholes then EMD went from chicken wire to lovers
            between the portholes so at this point they were able to
            paint threw the lovers then moving on to the phase 4 all the
            chicken wire was replaced with the lovers between the port
            holes and stainless steel grills for the air intakes.
Ed Rethwisch,
