Since so many have asked "why don't you have any CIOR engines!" I say, what? So, here you go. There are a few that aren't in the picture too and others still on the workbench. Then I took and piled up the T55 GEVO's, Kato SD80Mac, CR SD60I and 70MAc for a showing

And finally this is the last CIOR engine I have done....its been a while I know. Atlas GP40, painted with John Deere green spray paint...YES I SAID IT... The only engine in this color but its dead on and well, looks ok. It lives on the Rushville local...but today we find it setting on the Greenfield Scrapyard lead in Greenfield Indiana

LOL, funny thing is, I hid it down there when I lined them up..LOL....
I have another undec C630 awaiting its paint job!
I was inspired on the C630 by Brian Banna... But mine is no where close to his PC unit...!

Hey! I've never seen your SD80MAC before, can we see more. The SD80MAC is my favorite locomotive produced in HO scale right now. Once a good SD70M-2 comes that will be my top choice.

Hey is it just me or does that 4th engine from the left have the dymanic brake blister on backwards? ? Is the 2nd engine from left a SD40? I want to say the 3rd engine from the right would have to be my favorite there,great shots though,nice to see CIOR power......

you should paint some flames on some of your locomotives so they'll go faster

That DB blister and rear exhaust, that is a rebuild. Nice catch. Like I told you, that shop foreman at Logansport is an odd duck...never know what you might get.!

LOL, yes that second engine is a Kato SD40-2 that started life as a CSX engine. Its a Rebuild so its a R', but lives in the yard as a mother to a future mate.

LOL, I believe its a 1200 series. But its also a Mother unit, so its not in the SD40-2 class.... I believe its class was a SD40S-2R. There is a class of just SD40-2R's also, that is what you want. So make it what number and tell me...

Hey CIOR, I love your website, are you planning on doing any updates in the future? Also how hard would it be to do up a set of decals for your line, would love to add a car or 2!!!

Perhaps as soon as winter sets in and work resumes. Not sure yet when things will start.
Decals, if I get enough of a "want" for decals, I figured I can get some printed up.

Ok, stupid question, how come I can't find your website? I've heard several people talk about it. I know it's right in front of my face.
