I've tried modeling a few SP locos just to add a bit of variety to my motive power and the hardest part of modeling them is the weathering. I swear the SP never washed anything, LOL. As I looked through all the photos on various posts what struck me most is how most of their locos before the end looked almost black. The only part that was mostly clean was the painted on numbers where a worker had rubbed it clean so they could at least figure out what unit it was. It was a sign of how things had degraded for the SP I guess. Even though I model the UP and am glad it's still around I hate to see other class ones turn into just another fallen flag... Warren
