Fantasy steam paint schemes

I love the N&W Js however I model the Milwaukee Road and a freelanced connecting short line. So here is a Milwaukee Road Hiawatha J. Is there others who have do there own fantasy steam?

 

looks good I was thinking of doing a B&O J myself.

 

Well I gave into a wild moment once and created an NP locomotive. Poor quality old photo before I got a decent camera. Of course Concor used to have all sorts of fantasy steam back awhile ago also.

 

I've had the idea for years, but never acted on it. Someday I will have a BN steamer, although I think someone did that years ago. If I ever do it, I would do a PC engine also. But that's WAY down the line !!!

 

NYC, huh ??? And then fall into the hands of PC !!! Hmmm....hboy:

 

I wanted to do an still do want to do a Big sky Blue GN GS4.

 

I have one of the initial SP Kato GS-4s in the colorful paint scheme, but I had it painted B&O Blue.
I have the old ConCor U-50s and I painted and relettered them for B&O.
As they say, "it is your railroad."

 

I vote for that, too.

 

I think about 90% of my steamers are fantasies (including the factory-painted ones). Here's my NYC J3a in C&NW E-4 livery -

I have a Y6b in Sierra Railroad livery!



That will straiten the track out!

This is my Kato Mikado painted for Anahiem Asuza & Cucamonga with matching caboose and slogan box cars from the skit on the Jack Benny Show.

Bugs bunny would also come out of his rabbit hole in exotic places and quote must have took a wrong turn at Anahiem or Asuza.

A railfan snuck into the Westfalen & Gulf paint shop and grabbed a couple of shots of the unfinished Yellow Rose streamliner.

 

Great Pics! Wish I has some to contribute.

 

I had the firs Kato GS-4 I purchased painted Royal B&O Blue.
