Prop your locomotive cab door open! We've all seen it...A train rumbles past with the cab door open. Or, a yard job shuffles cars around with 'added visibility' through an open front or back cab door. Or, the local power is idling with doors open for maintenance access. Whatever the case may be, open cab doors are an interesting modeling idea that dramatically enhances a locomotives believability. Model Description: Used on dozens of GP and SD diesels, our Spartan Cab Doors are a perfect fit on nearly all non-wide cab EMD diesel locomotives. These doors will come in handy during kit-bashes or a locomotive shop scene. Model Features: €¢ Etched in .006" Stainless Steel €¢ Accurate Dimensions €¢ Razor Sharp Etching €¢ Two Per Pack 1. Remove door from etched frame with a sharp hobby knife. 2. If you are going to "prop" the door open on one of your models, we suggest painting it at this time. 3. To remove a molded - on door from a plastic shell, we suggest drilling a series of small holes, connecting them with a sharp blade, then cleaning out the excess with a combination of blades and files. 4. Notice that there is a hole directly above the window to mount a windshield wiper (BLMA #96). 5. We suggest using clear styrene for the window though Microscale's Krystal Klear would work as well.
