I finally got the Cascade green and black applied today! It's not a 100% correct/flawless model, but it'll serve my purposes just fine. It was originally an Atlas Silver B23-7, and I added the high-hood Smokey Valley Kits, and extended dynamic brakes, and cut out the original exhaust stack, and replaced it with the wider/bigger dash-7/8 style exhaust. That was fun . Thanks for looking and Happy Turkey Day!! Rick

Thanks guys. This "Humpback" will probably be road # 4078. I found a picture of it with the American flag sticker placed in the black field on the high 'short hood'. I've always liked the roads that have those flags on their locos, but not every loco got them either.
