John I love the additions! The F40s are sharp!! I do hope you have enough yard space. You may need to make a little more room soon... Rob

John that looks great! How well does it run? Oh and BTW did CSX ever have one on roster or is it one that you just wanted? The time line is close.
Joe, it ran rough at the beginning. It's wheels were really dirty, so I clean it up and oil it. Now it runs well. Huet is a funny guy. He won't make a fantasy engine. I asked him to make a SW900 in CSX colors, and he said he can make me a NW2 instead. CSX actually ran a NW2 in this scheme, and they had two of them
Surprisingly quiet. Nice to see one in action after the long delivery schedule. I would prefer a Gerd paint job, but just having it is good. You gotta love the small locos. Nice one Moo, James
