I'm liking the Atlas Trainman RS-36's which are available some places for cheap. They run well, and have decent handrails. Also, they (the prototype) have no turbocharger, and can be run without belching soot more realistically. I'm gonna try Mike's suggestion and remove lettering and replace with new lettering. I don't care on a pair of locomotives to be backward restorable. "x" at the end of reporting marks means private (non-railroad) ownership, no? Let's say I want to patch a locomotive for New Chicago Commercial Park; NCP. So If I wanted to letter a lease unit, it should be NCPX, no? Pardon my dirt ignorance.
