Find that locomotive!!!!

[Empire Builder]

This one here is actually a derivative of a game that was posted on Railroad forums by SSW9662.

Here's the rules:

• You have to find and post a picture of the described locomotive, passenger car, or freight car.
• The picture must be of a model railroad, not the prototype.
• The picture has to be yours, not someone else's or one you found on the internet; in other words, it has to be taken by you
• the winner is the first one to post a picture of the locomotive ( or sometimes it may be a passenger car or a freight car).
• Once someone posts the winning picture, I will post a new desciption for everyone to find a picture of & so on

Here's the first description: Amtrak Dash 8-32BHW in ''Pepsi Can'' paint scheme
GOOD Luck!!!!!!!!!!!

[SSW]

Doesn't have to be a leader does it?

Nope, so you are our 1st winner!!

So, here's the next description from me: Great Northern steam engine

And SSW, you get to pick the second description since you won; please post it when ever you have time.

by the way, was that any paticular train route in your picture, SSW?

Nice lookin' train ( and layout), I do a lot of messin' around also.
What type of cars were those locos pulling?

Ok, SD9 non-road specific it is then.

Good Luck to all the participants!!!!

Here is my Athearn SP SD9 on the Mount Hood Model Engineer's layout in Portland from when I lived down there. (Yes, I know the photo was posted in a photo gallery on RRF by EPTC100 - this is my old ID that I don't use anymore).

Congratulations to our 2nd winner, hyrail5!!!!

hyrail5 since you just won, you get to pick the next description (remember, it can be a locomotive, passenger car, or a freight car).

Hyrail5, please let me know your decision on the description, or just post it yourself.

Everyone: remember we still have Great Northern steam engine going, so if you have one, hurry and post it before someone else does!!

Ok - how about an ALCO Century unit - any road - any model (C415, C424, C425, C430... ETC).

If this contest lasts long enough (month+) I'll be posting, as I'm considering getting a CP Rail one.

I'm hoping to keep this contest going for a while, maybe one of the descripions will be about Canadian Pacific. Just keep watching!!, you never know what description there might be next, maybe one that you can do!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Empire Builder]

Does this count as a "freelanced paint scheme"?
It doesnt exist in prototype form (that I know of).
