There should be a place where every loco ever made can be found.

At the Op till you Drop I saw a Genesse & Wyoming GP. The only one I've found so far has been an Atlas Master GP-38. But I could swear it was an earlier Geep.

Anyone know of a Genesee and Wyoming Geep?

Well, there's always custom painting. And thent here's always those companies that did or do custom painted runs of other brands - like Bev-Bel Athearn cars and locos. Although most of the Bev-Bel stuff is completely wrong and not a model of any actual prototype. But for some reason people jump on it on eBay, must be collectors.
If you knew the manufacturer you could look it up - Stewart, Atlas, and Proto2000 all have fairly complete lists of everything they've offered on their web sites, even if it's older and no longer available.
