Just thought I'd show my luverly SD paint scheme being non Conrail and PRR  ;D

One of the better schemes around. Looks like a nice start.

Looks like a good start, looking forward to seeing your progress. Here are a couple of SD-45's I just finished in the meantime.




And a little green for St. Pats. (a day late, I know)

Here's my contribution.mods are removal of dynamics.locos are painted for CNW but belong to the Grand Valley Railway Historical Socieity. ;D

Now to get back to the OP that orange and green (looked black when I first saw it) looks good.



(anybody have a couple CNW nose gongs they aren't using?)
