Just an observation, I see the livery text in the cigar band scheme at a different level than the lightning bolt scheme in the reproductions, just below the waist band. As it is here in the photos, it should be more or less in alignment with the number boards. Keep your cool, I was just stating an observation, do with it what you wish.

There were a couple of variants. I'm not entirely sure why this was done.

I was just going on what has been suggested in photos, of course none of these show in the early photos. I was just suggesting in case you has missed something. Other than that nice work.

You'll have a better chance of some repainter picking up the request.


On a locomotive like this where over 100 of them were used all over the northeast, if someone was interested they would've picked it up. I highly doubt anyone alone goes off of a couple of pictures in RWA.


I guess I was wrong a couple of weeks ago... !*roll-laugh*!

Going out for beta. One of my beta tester complained that the horn was wimpy so that will be fixed and I applied it to the main audio folder so we should have a good strong A200 on all of these versions.

This is my preferred livery of all liveries.
I used to have it on HO model locos.
