If the SW7's turn out anything like the SW1's, they're going to look fantastic. Thank you for doing these.

Good job, looks like a complex repaint.

Really like the touch of soot on the stacks.

What we need now are China Red locos to run on a main or branch e.g. GP9, GP20, GP30 or GP40 (-2). The only China Red I've found in the game is the U25B and U25C - if there are others please point the way.

Which one do you want first? My deck is clear at this moment.

I'd forgotten Michaels's SD7 which comes in CB&Q China Red and Gray as well as the Black/Gray livery. The SD9 is also in both liveries. They will be useful.

Quite right, I forgot that also. I can blame my age so I will.
