Love it; perhaps my favorite diesel paint scheme. 

Had the Life Like N scale version; unfortunately, at one point I bought an MRC power pack that must have had some sort of "glitch", as it heated up the 18s motor to the degree that the sides melted slightly and got distorted...

Well another week goes by and its F.E.F again.  Great pictures guys, thanks for posting.  My contribution this week is a favorite of mine the mighty Marx 333 pulling her consist of NYC cars on the high speed line.  Steam is fading on the Leonardtown and Savannah since its 1944 but the war is still dragging on, so Steam still handles a lot of L&S passenger traffic as our diesel budget goes to switchers that can work the Port of Savannah loading convoys for the boys overseas.  So here is the L&S mid day express to Atlanta , still in the hands of steam.  With this mighty engine we will easily be in Atlanta in time for a nice dinner.  Old Joe, our senior engineer (40 year man) often bids this job because he can shop for his wife before the return tomorrow.  As he says, old 333 is "running like a Singer sewing machine!".
