Conrail Cyclopedia EMD SD-80MAC: References Magazine Articles: "Diesels, One-Detail-At-A-Time: EMD SD-90MAC as CSX 801, CR 4100," Louis Marre. Railmodel Journal. Sept 02, 46+. Superdetailing the SD-80MAC. They got the loco class wrong! "Modeling SD-80MAC and SD-90MAC Diesels in HO Scale," Russ Goodwin. Model Railroader. Oct 98, 64-69. A decent article on creating an SD-80MAC using an RRP SD-90MAC shell. There are a few oversights, as mentioned above. CR 4104, 4106 "Diesel Detail: EMD SD-80MAC As Conrail 4101 And 4109." Railmodel Journal. July 98, 54-56. Typical brief prototype overview, detail list, and paint list. Some tips for the RPP SD-90MAC shell, but the author forgets that the rear of the SD-90MAC shell and the SD-80MAC are different; therefore, details for the rear of the loco are totally overlooked! B&w photos. CR 4101, 4109 "Diesel Detail: Conrail (CR) SD-80MAC," Rich Picariello. Model Railroading. Dec 97, 55-57. Usual brief proto info. Some modeling tips. Paint, decal, and detail list. CR 4104 nose/front/rear, 4107 rear "EMD SD-80MAC: 5,000 Horses Running Wild On Big Blue," Jeff Capps. Model Railroader. April 97, 88-92. A nice overview of the prototype and technical details. The greatest asset is the HO scale drawings of CR 4100. There is no mention of the Rail Power Products SD-90MAC shell. Don't look for modeling tips in this article. Of note are two good detail shots and one good roster shot. There are some errors on the drawing and the text, check above for details. CR 4119 roster, 4126 detail shots of rear and conductor's cab area. "The SD-80MAC," Ed Ryan, Ken Goslett, Eric Neubauer. Railroad Model Craftsman. April 97, 61-66. An overview of the prototype, with HO scale drawings. I feel the photos are questionable for modeling purposes, either too dark or too severe an angle. The text is great, but some minor errors do exist in the drawings. CR 4103, 4107, 4111, 4121 elevated cab shot, 4123 "Review: Rail Power Products SD-90MAC." Railroad Model Craftsman. Nov 97, 92+. Gives good instructions for assembling the kit useful for the SD-80MAC conversion, plus some brief info on making an SD-80MAC. Copyright (c) 1998-2008 Robert S. Waller. All rights reserved.
