I haven’t decided what my next loco will be (aside from it being steam, of
course). Currently I’m torn between a 6 or 7 wide version of the Blue
Mountain & Reading #425 pacific class (4-6-2), which would be a very similar
build to my TSRR #500 but making use of the new blue BBB wheels, or a dark
bley, 8-wide version of the PRR T-1 duplex locomotives (4-4-4-4).

Tough choice. #425 is a nice Loco and dark blue steam would rock.
The Pennsy T-1
Duplex is just awesome and is on my build list.
A note on color though. All T-1s were painted standard Pennsy Dark Green
Locomotive Enamel (Brunswick Green) which was effectively black with a green
tint. The gray color that T-1s exhibit in many photos is from accumulated dirt
and grime. The T-1 came very late in the steam era and didn’t always get the
maintenance attention it deserved.
