Looks like you've cracked how to repaint these. Do you have plans to do LA Metrolink and Coaster ?

Hi guys,

at first, yes I will upload this 3 locos this week, GO Transit, ex GO Transit ( RBRX ) and the AMT.

But at this Point, I've no special plans for more repaints, I only have a repaint of the MI Train F59PH (WIP)

Also the biggest problem about repainting the F59PH and F40PH is that you can not put a big logo on a side, because on one side the logo is fine but on the other side it is up side down. So as an example I put the GO Transit logo is more in the back of the loco and also a little bit smaller as the original. There are only some small places on the loco which were not shown up side down like in a mirror .

I wonder if we could create a new child object to substitute for the roadname decal and move it to the correct position?

Child objects are what the repainters have used on British trains that have this reverse mapping. So it seems that most repaints for the F59PH and F59PHI would need someone who can do child objects.

Looks real sharp! Doing an AMT F59PHI, F40PH, single and double-deck coaches seems like a great idea too
