It was fun to see pix of the CM&W units on the link above. I enjoyed creating that color scheme. The CM&W insignia started as an in-house joke. It's a knock-off of the CA&E insignia. I contacted the GM&O Historical Society to get the formula for the maroon color. The red stripe was Scotchlite stock cut in the pattern of the South Shore Line's stripe that I designed. I borrowed that same stripe design, and altered it, from one that I created for the last Milwaukee Road scheme. The numberboards were of the same stock and typeface as Milwaukee Road's as I felt it was a modern, yet styled, face. Easy to read as it's white numerals on a black background. <br /> <br />Mitch
