    Precisely, one of 3. BN only moved the DB on #7502, so it is a one of a kind! The other 2 were basic rebuilds to B-units.For some reason, the trucks are not HT-C, rather they are Flexicoils? BN also did an SD40B, very similar in appearance to 7502. It was numbered 7600.
    Very nice!

    The scenery gets more dramatic with every rock outcropping. Can't wait to get some trains back into operation sometime soon.

    Things are humming right along as you can see. I manage to put about 2 to 3 hours into the layout most every day.

    I don't see any "porches" - I think this is, for some reason, an SD40B numbered as an SD40-2B.

    Great backdrops, SST, and great blending between them and the scenery! Looks like this will be very dramatic and photogenic.

    CV finished up the MEC E-7 unit and delivered it Saturday, so took her for a spin today. Looks great and runs great, got to turn the sound down way to loud. Thanks Jon up for another one in the green scheme!!!! Other than that we've been wiring up the new section.
