That looks good. Looking forward to this. Getting some covered hoppers ready for a stroll down Bedford Junction under CBQ power.

I've a good memory for whatever I can remember!
If you wait for perfection you will never do anything but it doesn’t stop you wanting it.
Age doesn’t stop you, it just slows you down.
If you only learn one thing in life - learn to think how your actions and words affect others BEFORE doing or saying.

Looking good Buzz... 
Not to push, but are you going to make a Black, Red, & White one? Just curious...

Were any of them in that color scheme? I haven't found a pic of that.

I am not sure myself. It is just that up in the Northland it was funny that when you saw the "Q" it was almost always in the black scheme. I always thought it had to do with the fact it was primarily Northern Pacific territory. Thanks for Your response, and consideration. Take Care, Stefan

I'd be happy to do it for you if there was such a thing. Check it out and get back to me.

I did a quick check on the internet and couldn't find a prototype pic of a GP20 in the black bird scheme. I think they were new enough to be delivered in the red bird scheme. GP7's and GP9's could go either way as could the SD9's and SD7's.

A nice dress for one of the best engine in the game.

Thanks for checking too. You are probably right. I think the "Q" was petty much done in the Twin Ports area by the time the GP20's came a long. Well I learned something new today... Thanks, Buzz & Howard & Take Care - Stefan
