Any interest in making some in B&O, C&O and PRR liveries?

Looks like B&O had 3 different liveries, C&O had 2, and the PRR had just one.

Someone did the PRR livery. I could possibly do the B&O and C&O ones. I will have to look and find some pictures of them. !!*ok*!!

I just downloaded the PRR and B&O ones that are in our library now. I'll check them out and post some screens. We can always use more especially with your good weathering touches! *!!thnx!!*

Here's how the ones that are available look like.

From the pictures I've seen so far, all three of these units need some tweaking in one way or another but are pretty close.

Is this the third livery? I don't know what needs to be fixed on the other repaints. They look fine to me.

Back when I downloaded the PRR repaints, the autonumbering was screwed up and there was no cabview... Personally, I'm waiting for a Pennsy RS1 !*roll-laugh*!

Uh oh... Maybe a fix is needed? I haven't download the PRR repaint yet.

I can tweak/fix the B&O Alco repaints if they're messed up/broken in some fashion. I've got the files still on my desktop. Just remember - they're do use a slightly different model than the default Dogmouse one - he was kind enough to tweak the position of a few things (I think the numbering and maybe something else - I'd have to doublecheck).

Oh, and I know one of the things that is probably being referred to - the dang front bars. B&O is a bit inconsistent when it comes to the paint on those.

It's just small rivet counter kind of tweaks that I noticed, like lettering size and placement. One thing I did notice, like you said, is that B&O didn't quite seem to have a 100% standard when it came to their paint jobs.

Most railroads didn't and don't. Different shops different painters different templates. Usually when one of our resident rivet counters tells me I did something wrong it turns out they are just looking at a different picture than the one I used.

Yeah exactly... The font size from what I've seen seems pretty consistent regarding these 3 units being mentioned, but stripes and logos seems to be pretty sporadic. Some have the capital logo, some don't. Some have this top stripe, some don't. !*roll-laugh*!
