Welcome TEE1055,

Most of us use English as our second language in here so there is no need for you to worry about expressing yourself.

As far as your Alco is concerned, please give us as much detail as you are able like price, shop, base model etc.

I had buying the model Electrotren #2452 (RENFE 318, green, period IV) at the hobbyshop "ZUBI" in Rorschach in the April 2012 with 50% off (ca. 120 EURO, from swiss price yet). This getting started my OSE modifying programme . The goal was make the A.304 like i see and photographed at Athina agios ioannis in October 1996 (I`am 15 years old at the moment). It`s a very fascinated locomotive for myself.
For the Electrotren-Model, i make modifications on the roof (different hatch, equipment for train heating, antenna), lighting like OSE-Standards, clear many holes for mirrors, round buffer pates (from Luck Feinmechanik) and other hoses to replace the RENFE-ones. The lettering is make from rubdown signs. To finish, the original window-wipers are replaced with etched ones from SMD Productions.

This week, i hat buy a second electrotren model. In the next two years, this gets a blue OSE-Version.

Thanks TEE1015. Very useful to know how you went about converting the Electrotren model. Please note that there are conversion bits available like lthe light clusters.
