Excellent roster!
Re: Sarge's Engine Roster - Sarge - 03-23-2009
Ok before I do the next two I have to give a little history. The "Royal Gorge" started life as a subsidiary of D&RGW, and had the following speed leter paint scheme (I havn't done any of these yet, but think a couple of tunnel motors are next
)![[Image: emdsd40t-2ph2aRGSsn.gif]](http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w117/Sarge_E7/Royal%20Gorge/emdsd40t-2ph2aRGSsn.gif)
In 1985 the RG&S became "employee owned" and had the previous solid orange scheme.
and finally, in 1995 the RG&S merged with the Knasas Pacific and hade the orange, silver, and black scheme. Both railroads keep their names but operate as one.
Here is a KP GP38-2 still in pre-merger paint. (this one was built by the owner of the KP)

Jim i really like that SD40M-2!! That looks neat
You got alot of great looking locos
Re: Sarge's Engine Roster - Sarge - 03-23-2009
Thanks Josh, that's one of my favorites so far too.
Re: Sarge's Engine Roster - Herc Driver - 03-23-2009
First off...that's one good looking diesel service center. Which goes nicely with all those good looking engines! I like the "rebuilts"...so many railroads do that kind of thing anyway...makes sense to do it on your own line.
Re: Sarge's Engine Roster - Sarge - 03-24-2009
Thanks Herc

Re: Sarge's Engine Roster - Sarge - 03-27-2009
