As some of you may now. I am modelling PRR if it was still around. Using the Conrail roster up to 1997-98. This was an Atlas C30-7 in Conrail colors that I repaints with the Brunswick Green, yellow on the grad irons and end rails with the gold "Pennsylvania" on the sides and PRR keystone logos front and back. I am also working on a SD90MAC-H, another what if. Not sure if I am going to paint it in this same color but with the gold Pennsy pin strips or with the Tuscan and black frame with the gold pin strips like on the E8's.   |

It will get some light weathering soon with the 90mac when it's done.

Hey that looks sharp,that 90Mac would look sharp painted like that...Just a light dusting on the trucks and tank and pilots and that should be enough......Get rid of those Kadee #5's and go with the Sergents....

Well I'll try and get some progress pictures up on the SD90. I am waiting on parts at the moment but have some things I can do.

I really do enjoy seeing modern day "fallen flags" and that Dash 7 looks right at home.

The Southern is mone the NYC and Rock Island are friends of mine here in Denver. They both have websites that you can check out. www.nycsystem.com and www.rockrail.comRandy, I have gotten out of doing fantasy units for selling because they don't sell nearly as well. If somebody wants me to do one I would, but other wise you probably won't see one. |

Makes Sense. After all, if I remember correctly, the Penn Central's U30C's were originally destined to be PRR units.
