He has in the past... the UP E9 is my work, the SP snowplow freeware is my work, the SW1500 UP and SP are mine. I've done Beta testing for Dick and he's great to work with.

Oh, in the pile of GP9s, there is a long hood forward with a nose bell, marked for the Penn Central. One Passenger config, another in other freight.

Nice, I'll have to get that UP E8 pack !*cheers*!" From Mike.

It's very nice. If you look a bunch of my UP screen shots (mostly on Sherman Hill or Tennessee Pass) that's it.

Many thanks to ShayFan for the consist info...

On to the final testing.... BTW, this is a fixed number, fixed named cars consist. Matched as best I could to the original. (The baggage is a substitute for a bad order car in this run. ;-))

Project complete and in the Downloads area... Enjoy!

Also, please remember that these cars would show up later in C & O passenger trains after the two roads merged.

I remember seeing B&O passenger cars on the Alleghany; all of the pass equipment was looking dirty and old by then. It may have been during the early Amtrak years, I can't pin down a date. With all of Mike's recent work, I'm envisioning some heavy-traffic passenger scenarios on the COA for the future. With the coming addition of Covington and Hinton there will be six mainline GW (George Washington) stations to service. We can fudge just a little on the era matchup, *!!wink!!* .

I think MadMike and I have the parts to make the C&O switcher.... but don't hold your breath. We have a ton on our plate at the moment.
