I asked them to consider doing some CB&Q stuff!  Guess I will have to wait.

I suggested they split the run between SD70s and ES44s

I'd be in for NYC, PRR, Chessie, Seaboard, and New Haven.  (I had planned to do a New Haven in the U25B scheme)

Did I miss something, aren't these foobs?  Some look pretty snazzy.

Apprehensive influence swallow away
You seem to feel abysmal take it
Then you're careful grace for sure
Kinda like the way you're breathing
Kinda like the way you keep looking away

Seaboard System and Family Lines for me.  I recommended in the comments section that the Family Lines unit needs to be sublettered for one of the "family" roads.  I'd like to see "SCL" under the cab.

~Ian

I also suggested that.

But for the duplicate names I would do the opposite builder.

IE:
Conrail unit would be an EMD.
Pennsy would be an EMD.
New York Central would be GE.

Attempting to model a modern Southern Pacific based in 2015/2016...

Also, I have a passenger train addiction...

Good call..

A Conrail SD70ACE in the SD80MAC scheme would be killer!..
-- And I wish they would stick to freight schemes..

..  The NYC and NH seem to be more passenger than Freight.
NYC Cigar band, and NH Orange and Black..

I'd definitely like to have one or a few L&N, Chessie, and Seaboard units.  Personally I think that one cool idea for CSX heritage units would be to do all of the CSX paint schemes like Bright Future or CSX Transportation.  Having both kinds heritage would really add to promoting the history or CSX.

Perfect excuse for me to have some Seaboard Systems power running around, foobie or otherwise.

CSX does not buy EMD anymore, they avoid them like the plague.

I would be in for Seaboard, SCL ans SBD but since this are NSC they will be way overprice.
Which ever side of the track I am on is the right side.
