Reply to "Meet The Kansas City & Gulf"

Just a quick update.

Amid running trains, I've started the long process of getting my undecorated fleet through the paint shop. This is the first time I've painted/lettered/weathered a model engine in 15+ years!

I chose to start with KC&G RS-1 #110. I had to re-learn a lot of things I'd forgotten or skills unused, but I got 'er done! For this one, I decided to paint it as if it was in its original paint scheme when delivered to the KC&G in mid-1945.

Here are some pics.

Right after finishing:

And on the layout...

The next two for paint (RS-1 #115 and GP7 #402) are disassembled and awaiting me having the needed block of time to start airbrushing. These will get the more familiar KC&G "Gulf Coast Blue/Mountain Mist Gray" scheme.

All fer now!

Andre
