After the NW merged my *fictional* Winchester, Paston, & Portsmouth, it acquired its only RSD-15's, which due to NW's influence over the WPP's board of directors were equipped with dual control stands and high short hoods. Not to mention they were the first WPP units delivered new in a maroon and dulux gold color scheme, though other models were repainted in the few years prior to the 1967 buyout. The maroon units kept their relatively fresh paint after the merger, and once the 1971 F6 paint scheme became standard, a few units had the "wp&p" logo on the sides painted out with a black rectangle, over which the white "NW" was applied. Railfans LOVED to find these rare "redbirds" plying the Shenandoah valley... <br /> <br />Of course, this is the fun of modeling a fictional short line.
