Copyright...HMMMMMMMMMMMMM Interesting idea Sass ...think any model companies would be interested? Thing is it's a mutation of the standard Pennsy single stripe paint job.... though I've never seen it done before ....I did see one where the modeller copied the Amtrak paint scheme and did the hoods in orange instead of red...and used the infamous Long Island "speed" lettering in orange... that was good looking too..But this is one I probably have wanted to do for a long time...the opportunity just never came around...the price I ended up paying for the five car set and the engine...made this a prime candidate for the changesassgrunt wrote:That is a beautiful job all around on that engine - not just the execution of the paint, but the overall decision on the color scheme and markings as well. Most people would get so hung up on having to make it prototypical that they'd never even consider doing a "what-if" livery. I like the various iterations of GG1's, but I think I like your scheme best of all! (Maybe you should copyright it, and see if you can start a following). Very cool.
