Some of my N scale loco projects

[Catt]

The Grande Valley Railway became a reality in 1980 based out of the old Grand Rapids & Indiana yard in Grand Rapids Michigan.Since there have been a fair number of predecessor railroads in this yard GVR management decided to do some Heritage scheme locos.They will consist of a variety of different units to honor the predecessor railroads that used this yard to conduct railroad business in the West Michigan.First tailroad up is of course the GR & I which was long gone by dieseldom (but I ain't doing steam).Since I already owned several of these locos I would like to introduce Grand Rapis & Indiana 1980 a SD-9 rebuilt to SD38-3 specs.
