A couple years back I saw a guy had an SD90 painted in the last MIlwaukee Road livery. Beautiful job! I then thought it was a cryin' shame. A shame the Milwaukee Road went belly up, not that someone painted a locomotive in the colors of a fallen flag. I sometimes wonder what would have happened if the the MILW, CNW and RI merged? Access to west coast and great lakes ports, "chemical coast" traffic, and Powder River coal access! <br /> <br />I like to run my layout as if the MIlwaukee Road never died out. I run MILW trains along side Montana Rail Link trains. I run Amtrak Superliners next to CB&Q streamliners. Why? Because I think they look neat. Don't let anyone else tell you how to enjoy your hobby. <br /> <br />The way Class I railroads are casting off branches, who knows? maybe some short line or regional will resurrect the old nomes and paint schemes! Maybe we "protolancers" are just ahead of the times.
