Is it Railroad Roman or Times New Roman? I have both.

I don't have any font with "Roman" in it.

Likely it would of been Railroad Roman, can't really tell though unless I ask the author themselves, as it only mentions Roman in the book.

It would be nice, seeing the were underwashed and overused....

I can supply some pictures of some old Respondek GP7 and SD9's, which use a version of the Illinois Terminal scheme, if you need any.

Alright, I can definitely do that.

I hope this logo will work. Thanks for getting another one.

The logo is working out nicely. All I had to do is change the color just a bit to match the main color I chose for the locomotive.

Yeah no problem! Since the Alco S2 has pretty much all of it's parts on one template, I'm probably just going to go ahead and finish it and then test it out if you don't mind.

Does the back of the cab have any safety strips? I couldn't find any pictures of the ITC Alco S2 in that livery. (On RRPictureArchives)

I need get some more information on auto-numbering, but until then I can work on the weathered version(s).

The Fleet numbers were 700-711, later 1001-1012.

All units had safety strips up to the cab windows.... only 704 and 705 had stripes going up to the roof line.

These look amazing! Thank you!
