this doesn't look like a SOO or M&SL.
The wife was hunting for distinct and (what she calls) pretty F7 schemes. I usually don't do photo skins, but my art skills aren't up to this! Half photo, half art. I'll need to get permission from the railroad to publish this, as all marks are copyrighted.

My mom lives in Cottonwood, in the Verde Vally. They run an excursion train from Clarkdale up along the Verde river to an old copper mine. I've taken that ride a few times. Stunning scenery, fantastic trip. They use 2 of these F units, one front, one rear. No place to turn around, LOL.

Sometimes I should just wait after my second cup of coffee before reading posts...

I finished and uploaded the Golden State passenger train, It has a Rock Island E7 A-B-A set in vermillion red and silver, a Southern Pacific E7 A-B-A in vermillion red and silver, and two sets of passenger cars, one smoothside set based on the G-Trax SP Daylight freeware, and one ribside set based on the G-Trax payware ribside lightweights. Both Passenger sets are vermillion red and silver as the Golden State Wiki calls for.
