Complete with some Budd streamliners to go behind them. MRC has an article to print stripes that would simulate the SS panels. Used by some RR's...
Sadly, most of the items are closer to N scale & most of the "miniatures" are too small. For 2015 they have a CSX GP38-2 & caboose & box car....
If you want a more modern look, you should find the Nashville & Eastern that uses most of the route. You could do a what if with a PA pulling a...
Haven't talked much about rolling stock. Marklin: A few American cars, mostly European. Hook coupler not compatible with anything else unless...
There may be a thread a while back in powering the Hallmark PA with a modified GP mech & a dummy 3rd axle, making a A1A. Need a PA to go with the...
Classic Trains this month has a great article about F's from FT to F9 to a F18 or a F20 that were never produced. It would be a fantasy to make a...
But only one locomotive? How about a GP7, F7, something smaller than the big boy. Just enough to move around 6 freight cars at a time. One of...
The FP7 only adds 5ft to the F7. Maybe if you cut 2 shells or cut from a B unit to add in s/g.
One problem with the MTL GP35 or GP9 or SD40 is they are out of production but available on Ebay. Your choice of road names may depend on your...

I'd want some Wabash blue, with a yellow stripe.

Old A units had steam generator bumps on the rear. New A units do not. Old B units were non-powered dummy New ones are all powered.
Nice. In a recent video, it appears the Ann Arbor has been reborn, with some units in UP colors, a GP35 & GP38.
I'd like to see another MTL GP9, GP35, SD40, not just the ones remaining on ebay.
On the Renauld's page in Elburn IL $1175.95.
Yes, depending on the road. Black for fuel oil, white/stainless for drinking/showers, red for fires, etc. On some roads may be 1 car with that...
It's been so cold may be frozen until April 1 if it gets warm by then?
Would make more sense to build a FP45. Sold to ATSF & MILW. You could pull a selection of Marklin Budd cars. Would be nice if MTL did any...
Might be easier to change scales. Most likely you model would have already been done Horribly Oversized, maybe in Brass.
