Happy New Year to all readers! I am a beginner in modelling the Southern Pacific in HO and was wondering whether anyone could give me some advice as to which of the Amercian manufacturers produces the most accurate Southern Pacific Rolling Stock in Daylight colurs for the years from the 40's, 50's & 60's. Also could anyone pass me on advice as to what motive power was used on the various SP passenger streamliner services - both steam and diesel. Basically I love the Daylight express coulours and would like to replicate a number of trains accuratly with both Steam and diesel motive power. For example I have a Bachmann GS4 and a pair of Proto 200 E7 & E8 loco's (with E7 B units) and would be interested in knowing who produced the most appropriate stock to run with these locomotives. I am also thinking of getting an Athearn Genesis F7A in the SP Black Widow coulours - were these units just used on frieght services or did they do passenger work and if so what sort of passenger cars were they usually seen with? Appologies for so many questions in such a small space, but if anyone has any ideas or information to help me out it would be greatfully received. With kind regards from the UK. Stephen.
