Wow! Such a nice model of a curvy, angular locomotive. Not an easy thing to
do. And the C&O colors look awesome.

Thanks Cale, I was just lucky that TLG made the dark blue half arch for the
nose.

Speaking of BL2s I stumbled across this
Walk through of Bangor &
Aroostook BL2 #557 while surfing one of my favorite
Rail sites today. They were
certainly odd ducks.

That was a cool walk through, Ive been through f-units before but never a BL2.
Interesting to see just how they worked out the spacing, etc. With the tight
space in the long hood due to the ledge, I can see why the BL series never
caught on.
And thanks for the link to RyPN, good to see R&LP continuing on.
