Commuter Power.
These were painted, and superdetailed by me in CDOT(Connecticut Department Of Transportation) scheme.

Athearn BB P42AC "Genesis": CDOT #35
Athearn Genesis RTR F59PHI: CDOT #435. This unit was originally going to be painted like New Haven's DL 109's. After a couple of paints and repaints finally gave up.

These next units are not on the layout, because of some reason or another.

Bachmann HH16-44. NH #1605. Needs handrail repair(Can see in pic)
Athearn BB GP7(9) "dummy": NH #1214. Bought at a show. Inadvertly numbered my SD70M the same.
Athearn BB F45: BN #6642. Pilot and front step damaged. Needs handrails and truck details.
Athearn BB FP45: CNE # 4501. Wrecked. Fell off a friends layout. May canabalize handrails and truck sideframes for BN unit.

Great roster ED!!

Thanks everyone!
I like the BNSF unit myself. Thats why you don't see it in New Haven retro paint.
Don't worry Ralph. With all the locos PC got from PRR and NYC, a lot of the NH locos were scrapped.
