Here is the full vista dome on the tracks. I think it looks pretty good.

The seven car consist is surprisingly heavy and tough for my PW engines to get up my grades. Even my 2353 F3 with a dummy B and dummy A unit plus the 7 cars can't keep its wheels from spinning on the steep (4%) Gargraves. So I may look for a modern F or E (or Alco) ABA set that has more pulling power. There was a Lionchief Plus set in the warbonnet scheme in a few years ago, I believe they were 6-82290 and 6-82302, but they are very scarce on the used market. Any other suggestions for diesel motive power in warbonnet that work on O31 would be appreciated. I have no command set up on my layout beyond the LionChief engines.
