Tom,
Love all that CR power you've been posting. It was your Operation Lifesaver unit that inspired me to buy the decals, I want to do 2 units, #7889 with upside down crossbucks, and one other. Your SD40-2 reminded me of something that always irked me about the CR Quality scheme, and that is why did the RR put the logo on backwards on so many units? Even the new units from the factory had backwards logos on them (on the engineer's side only) but units painted at Altoona were so random the logo could be backward on either side, or BOTH sides, in some cases the explanation so is as simple as the shop put the left logo on the right side, and the right logo on the left side.
Don't know why it irritated me so much, I always felt the "Q" should be to the rear, like the old logo was always toward the rear. Keep posting more, I'm thinking I might start a CR model thread.
