And I agree, it is nice looking.

It makes me realize we don't have any skins of any vintage U.P. locos with silver trucks.

Or hardly any other Alcos.

Posted: Mon Apr 14, 2014 11:25 amI've been stumbling across all sorts of weird looking engines. If y'all like, I'd post them here?

Did you know the Niles Canyon Scenic is working on a S.P. "Kraut"?

My F3s and GP9s in the library do. I'm working on a new photoreal set of silver textures for the Britkits locos...

I'd rather not have more white elephants and holy cows when there are still many "basic" engines lacking.
A good ALCo PA, FA
A good EMD E7/8/9, FP7 (Britkits are converted MSTS models)
Baldwin "sharknose"
rather than exotic engines, many of which were failures like the Centipede.
