Been a little bit since I spammed my fictional junk.

I love those "Rocky Mountain" locos--what model are they based upon, and could that repaint be shared? Thanks.

NBSR Train 121-28 storming out of Saint John, NB with GMTX 2645 leading NBSR 3095, 6406, 6315, 6403, 45 loads, and 24 empties. (121 total car bodies, as well cars are included).

Wonderful!
I'd give you an updated train order signal and traffic signals, if you want 'em!

Sure! Shoot me a PM.

Recycled junk at work.

Jasonjedi1, that weathering looks darn good!

Kodachrome fail

Just for future reference for the Trainsimulations painting crew, when SP and ATSF both began painting their kodachrome units, the big billboard lettering was positioned so that after the merger was approved, all they would need to do is add the big billboard SP to SF units, and add the SF lettering to SP units.


Espee units, on the left side, SP was placed towards the cab allowing SF to be added later closer to the radiator





On the right side, the SP was placed towards the radiator, so SF could later be added towards the cab





Santa Fe units, on the left, SF was placed near the radiators, so SP could later be added near the cab.





Santa Fe units, on the right, SF was placed near the cab so SP could later be added closer to the radiators





Your left side lettering was correct on the recent SD45 pack.





Your right side lettering was incorrect on the recent SD45 pack. Fail.




Just pointing this out before more Kodachromes get released. There actually was post-merger logic applied to the pre-merger painting, an unwritten (among railfans) rule that many people with observation skills were able to pick up on.

Looks fab!

If you ever want to upgrade your signals, let me know.

Sure! I would happily incorporate them. Thanks

[CSRX]

New units have arrived just in time.

That's nice. Nose has been swatted nicely and I will endeavour to do better in the future

Fantastic stuff Everyone! Next level things!

With a temperature of 1 degree, though windchill factor making it feel like -18, the train slowly makes its way east, after struggling to build air most of the night in the yard and wasn't able to depart, due to being -17 degrees and a windchill factor of -55.

After hours of snowfall, the train departed and an EMRY SD70M-2 6404 was seen on the way.

Good job Borislav Miletic
