RSJB18, I really like that BL-2. Their unusual looks really appeal to me. I wish someone would make one in PRR livery (and yes, I'm aware that the prototype PRR didn't have any).
As for me, no, I haven't done much with the layout itself, apart from righting a few trees that Catzilla knocked over during an unauthorized expedition. Mostly, I've been running my Lionel 783, which I've been slowly upgrading to 700E configuration, Most recently, I put a 700E pilot truck on it.

Seems you either love the BL-2 or hate it. Never seen a PRR either but Bangor and Arostook- @BAR GP7 #63 has a beauty, Monon, and a couple other lines. I have it in the demonstrator paint scheme by MTH that I need to unpack.

EMD designed it to compete with the ALCO RS series but it never caught on. The GEEP soon replaced it.
