I like the second one (blue roof) personally, but the silver roof probably fits a modern timeframe better.

Just To Let the People Know the Louisiana Northern Railroad is Still Here.We Are Currently Working on a New build Called the GP22ECO-TMU. Since our buyout of the Arizona Southwestern,we have came into countless problems with Locomotives overheating and stalling out in Tunnels on this new Subsidiary. We bought this Railroad in helping the LANR get to the West Coast. Which lead to this build and the buying of more SD40-2s which should be in the LANR Shops soon. We are checking into finding more SD40T-2s for use on this new line and possible SD22ECO-TMUs .
And since the Recent Partnership with the TCI,which has open the doors up for Coal,and more Intermodal Traffic on the LANR. We Have Reached a power Shortage,which means the Buying of more Locomotives. We are even looking in to getting about 20 SD70ACe models,but knows. We at LANR are happy with the 40 series and will more likely buy more of those,but the SD70ACes are on our Minds. But LANR has Grown and we are having to leave power and thats something we dont like to do.

Since the TCI decided to let go of the Smaller roads it owned the LANR got the Indian rock & western Railroad from TCI. The LANR has gained 1 GP7R,3 U30Cs and 2 SD60Ms from the acquisition. The U30Cs will be the first GEs on the LANR roster and where they will be put at service on the LANR is unknown at this point in time.
