NW Passenger Geep

[NW Mailing List]

Yes, the NCTM N&W, GP9, No. 620 was a freight engine (painted blue) before being donated to the museum.  It was painted in Tuscan Red for the museum's on-site train ride.   Here are a couple of pictures from this morning.

I'd call it a role-player. I don't think there is any intention to deceive. They just thought it looked better in the passenger colors and applied Rule 1 (Modelers' version). I think it does!

A heads up. The N&W 620 at Spencer is actually an imposter in the Tuscan Red scheme. she N&W Passenger GP-9's were number 500-521. N&W 620 was black or blue in original service.

   I'm sure others will have better pictures, but I could put my hands 
on   these quickly.

   Is     there a pic of one I can look at.  Somebody has on in 3R O at 
a good     price, but will not get if the paint is wrong.      Thanks!
