(erielack) Erie black/yellow hood unit scheme...



Hi folks,

	I'm trying to paint up an Erie GP7 and RS3, and have some paint styling
questions:

	* At the bottom of the "bibs" on the ends, when the yellow part flares out,
does it taper out to the hood walkway, or does it remain (as the photos make
it appear to be) about an inch or two above the walkway, and then abruptly
ends?
	* The RS3 is more obvious here, but at the top end of the bib, as it goes
out onto the carbody and then terminates in that curved end, does it extend
onto the roof more than the curve between roof/side? The RS3 is very
distinct, but the GP7 isn't.
	* How is the yellow done across the end of the roof? Does it follow the
contour of the carbody (on the GP7, for example, extending outward), or does
it just go straight across?

Any photos or painting diagrams you can point me to would be a great help -
thanks!

	- Paul
