Hello Scott:
A very big YES for the CNJ GP-7 version with yellow stripes, long hood train lighting box, short hood high mounted bell, 'frog eye' marker lights with red/orange/yellow lenses and smoke deflectors mounted on roof each side of cab roof.
Most importantly from historic perspective...suggest use roadnumber 1526 this is original CNJ GP-7 as delivered roadnumber (and has NOT been made in this number by Atlas or MTH or Williams). After 1958 Newark Bay Bridge accident 1526 was rebuilt by EMD with new roadnumber...1526 became 1531. However had major bodystyle changes including moving roof mounted bell to long hood end and was then classified as GP-9M so do not do 1531.
Additional 'vacant' CNJ roadnumber models are: 1520, 1527 and possibly 1528.
Run both roadnumbers.
Thanks.
Walter M. Matuch
PS: Many times in my youth I actually ran many of the CNJ GP-7s when I rode along on CNJ's passenger runs...my uncle and grandfather were CNJ men and later I was one too!
