With Watco's boom in Oklahoma they have purchsd 8 units from the Norfolk Southern for the EOG project between OKC and Tulsa. Here is the first unit out of the paint shop. They still have not numbered the units but said they will get them finished in the next couple of days. Have a great weekend everybody!!

That unit looks good, Greg. Will it be in the 4100 class somewhere?
It’s even got 4 front windows instead of the 2 on those other ex NS Black Pearls. It looks like it would be a nice motor to spend 12 hours in during a nice Oklahoma summer day jumping between the slow orders on the Stoolwater Central.

I am actually not going to number these units I am doing them for Christmas presents for new WACTO customers. They will be placed in cases along with some cars to sit on people's desks. That is the only reason the lettering is HUGE so that the customer remembers who gave it to them!
