My first repaint: It will be a replacement for a loco in one of my favorite freeware routes, East Metro. It is one of my favorite locomotive types too. Just have to master the alpha channel in the number boards. I plan to do updated ( looks and physics ) for all of the EM locos. I started this as a project for OVS, but I am going offer it to the entire MSTS community.

Joe,

That RS looks just great!! Being an Alco-haulic, I love just about anything that came from that manufacture, steam, and diesel. Being your first repaint I know how it feels. This was my first complete repaint and it feels good sining something you did in the sim earning a living as it should.

Paul, how much track did you have to replace after running that monster on the Ma&Pa. Plus did it make the curves. LOL

David,

Only ran that Century after PennSteel completely rebuilt the Ma&Pa. Besides, they were used on the York-Frederick line, not the Muddy Creek line. That one was way to curvy for a Century. Might just sent the refurbished MPa/PN RS1's and 2's up there to run down to Funkhouser's instead.

Joe, that looks great - EMRR was the first really good route (IMO) for the sim, and altho' it is no longer on my HD, with new locos (particularly Alcos), it might just sneak its way back....

I think you meant Joe, but we know who you mean. Very nice work Joe but I am a little upset. I was sort of thinking along those color lines for the Cumberland Valley Railroad that I am thinking of creating for Rich's new route. Oh well, back to the drawing board.

No, seriously, those colors look great together and you have done a very nice job for your first effort. Looks better than my first one, anyway. I too liked that route, as I like the Ohio Route (which is still one I run a lot of) and every other Rich Garber route. Looking forward to getting that when you get it done.

Shoot, now what colors am I going to use for the CVRR? Hmmmmm?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Hi Tim!

Use yellow and red for the CVRR! Would be a very nice paintscheme...
The Mainparts yellow with red-stripes and lettering for example.
BTW: The official stock will be L&N????
