I could run IC GP40s in 1968, they couldn't be in the DEATH STAR paint but I'm going to use "modelers license" and run my GP40s since they DID exist in 68 but not in that paint. I was thinking the other day and I think the GP40 is the only one to wear all 3 IC paint schemes- Green-Diamond, Split-Rail, DEATH STAR. I need some B-B IC GP35s and P2K GP7s and / or 9s. I found out Stewart used to / still does make a CGW F3. I've seen them on eBay. Wish I had the $$. I've heard Stewarts are about the best F units you can buy. Got my track. Got my decals. I'm going to order some paint, gloss and dulcote Monday. I've been E-mailing a CGW *expert* (more so than me) and he thinks the Oelwein yard had 32 tracks[:O] My next layout WILL be an EXACT replica of the Oelwein yard (even if it is 32 tracks) so I'm hoping to find an Oelwein trackplan while I still can.
