Tom thanks alot,
Beautiful pictures. Brings back memories. Karabuk is a steel town. One big integrated steel mill and lots of small mini mills surrounding it. Being a Metallurgical engineer it was the first place I did my summer practice during my university years. Those diesels you see in the pictures, specially the ones with the large cab windows, DE24000, are my favorites, unfortunately no models of it exists. The nearest is the Atlas GE U30C.I am planing to make one,scratch built, using the U30C's engine and trucks.Here is one done total scratchbuilt by one of my friends:
Tom thanks again for posting and bringing back memories.
