R.W. King, unless you just don't care for the rolling stock and locos you presently own, why not think about re-lettering and painting what you do like for BNSF? True, if you own steam it will be out of place on a "70-early 80's" era Pike except as a "rail fan" excursion passenger train. If nothing else, what about "yard clutter?" Ever see a "rip track" with trucks, wheel sets and gondolas with sundry scrap just sitting there rusting away? Truckless old cabooses were used for make shift R.R. offices, box cars for tool storage etc, passenger cars for diners, retired steam locos for heating or staionary use...and the list goes on. The only rule "set in stone" for me, is never throw anything away! A day may come that you wi***o heck you still had some of those items.
