Jeff, Whay color & type of paint did you use for that KCS engine? Also what decal set.

Thank you... I did my best... Started with 5 undec. Geep E's and then repainted 6 SD40T-2's. Bought two undec GP38-2's and did them next. I have five RPP SD9E's next on my list to do.
Custom Painted.........(Not by me I'm not brave enough yet!)
My fictional Pennsylvania coal hauler...
SD40's by Kato. No, I didn't dull coat it... the WM had a wash rack, and they weren't afraid to use it!
Atlas SD35... fortunately, I painted mine with the one number (out of 5) that they haven't produced!
Chopper!
Atlas VO-1000. This turned out very nicely... then I decided to weather it with a hammer... Oh well, lesson learned. Washes are better than spray any day.
