I found this photo (author unknown) of the new corporate colours of the Canadian Pacific Kansas City RR.

As much as I'd like to also show Baldwin power (if you detect some jealousy there, I guess it's been thinly veiled!  Tom, by my way of count over the last few weeks, I believe you have shown 2 C&O, 1 PC and 1 Reading AS616!  You have acquired a very handsome collection of motive power.  The CN version is also quite handsome in olive green), alas, no Baldwins in the gorge...

A decrepit 70-ton hopper (1948 build) makes it's way under the I-80 bridge over the Lehigh in White Haven.

Todd you have to understand Baldwins are a passion of mine. My father, two uncles, and an aunt all worked at the Eddystone plant. I used pass the plant on my way to my Catholic grade school. I have 2 B&O AS-16's, 1 B&O AS616, 1 Penn Central AS-616. I preordered 1 of the B&O AS-16 and the Penn Central AS-616. The second B&O AS-16 and the AS-616 I got at MB Klein with a big help from my reward points. I also have an PRSL AS-16 and S-12 I got from Yandeedabbler ages ago. From eBay I picked up a Stewart kit PRSL AS-16 and a PRR AS-16. I wish I had a couple Reading and CNJ units but as of yet I have not found any at a price I am willing to pay.

Impressive roster!  Makes sense that you should lean toward Baldwins after hearing about your life experiences, it's not often that you see a modeler with multiples of either the 4 or 6 axle units.  The six-axles were apparently well known for their pulling power - ahead of their time for certain.
