I wish no ill towards anyone on this topic. I was so happy to see a Blue NW2 to buy. I do not know much about the L & N but this engine will have a home if it is done in blue. I would love to have a Winston-Salem Southbound engine with passenger cars. I believe the railroad club in Winston-Salem does not even have a color picture of those cars to know exactly what they look like or were painted. I wish someone would make that road but I doubt that will ever happen. I am happy to just run things with certain Rail road names. My wife thinks I am addicted to Southern Green. I would love a Southern Caboose in green instead of all the red ones. I purchased a Missouri Pacific engine a few years back just to get a blue engine. I do not even have a clue if they even had blue engines like the one I bought. I happen to like the look of that blue engine. I may not take my hobby of model trains as seriously as some. I wish those who are much more concerned with authenticity than I am peace and happiness. I happen to just enjoy running my toys and hoping my wife does not count how many engines I do have. I believe I have excided her limit a little while back of Southern engines. How she could ever think one could have too many engines of the finest railroad I will not understand. Now I am worried if I pre order as planned, what if Lionel paints it gray.
