The only J&S BL2. It was acquired by Ed Ellis and Iowa Pacific, ran in the Saratoga & North Creek (and shockingly IPH repainted it from Autumn Harvest to D&H, probably the only time they ever took a piece from autumn harvest to a different scheme), where it ran with another BL2.
Janesville & Southeastern was part of the Wisconsin & Calumet. They had several satellite operations across Michigan and Wisconsin, hence the BL2 going to Green Bay when operations ended. (Wisconsin Central I believe took over, and even kept their FP7, ex-MILW 96-A).

This will be a lovely unit to see in Train Sim. I hate autumn harvest and I do not like BL2s, but I love authenticity, even when that means things like this, and I must admit I do find it novel, as long as it is not the LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN in autumn harvest. I shall be most excited to run the 52 when complete, with my other autumn harvest IOU Pacific & WICT equipment.

Thank you Buzz.

There's something about that paint scheme and lettering font that just works. Looks good, and it's something unique.

I didn't know if there would be enough interest to be worth posting it in the library. I did this as a request. Here's a link to it.

Thank you again. It was appreciated in last week’s KTR operating session, for that Michigan/Wisconsin “Mohart” era scenario.

What a lovely unit. I am working to add the 567 sound pack bits to my version.

I would have thought that sound pack would already be there since the installation of JerseyCentralFan went into the 'Audio' folder which should make all of the BL2's use that sound pack.

Thank you Buzz! The BL2 is one of my favorite locomotives, so I'll download any repaints that are made for it.

Besides, you do excellent work. **!!bow!!**
