Bob Harris posted:Lord please no Jenks Blue, it serves no purpose it was the start of the demise of the Missouri Pacific. I can just imagine Scott doing a 100 of E6 in Union Pacific gray and yellow with North Little Rock red Lettering. Be happy with what he did, and they are rare from the quantities 5A 3 B 2r 5A 4 B 3r

Oh I am incredibly happy with the MP models - especially with the unique port hole windows !!! With the numbers you mention and required different tooling, I am grateful to Scott for executing the model. (And I’m selfishly sorry we couldn’t get MP and T&P E7s with portholes.)
We all have our own likes and dislikes and where we draw lines. I will not buy a model in Union Pacific colors with MP lettering. Don’t want one. However, A Jenks blue model would add a color diversification to my fleet of E’s and F’s. And actually would fit in nicely with all the last powerful MP diesels. Just me. I love all the models. I grew up watching the real ones in South St. Louis county and lived every minute of it.
