One of many classics from back in that era. Just slightly before my time. !*roll-laugh*!

I consider myself lucky to have seen them running in real life.
Well technically they were FPA-4s but still.
I have to say though that the VIA yellow-and-blue paint job didn't look too good on them, they are old-style maids and deserve old-style clothes, like Buzz's EL livery or the old CN and CP ones.

I know they mostly ran the PA units, but I'd love a warbonnet livery one of these! I made one way back in the day but I'm definitely not a skinner.

The Alco FA you're posting? Or the Santa Fe Unit?

This is the paint I made back in the day, I would need to do some searching to see if I still have it

The model not the paint job.
