I would like to find a GP9 with the C&O road name in N scale.
So far I have had no luck.
My plan is to buy a undercorated unit and paint it to match the C&O paint scheme from the late 1950's.
I have found a few old photos, but they are not the best to use to lay out color.
I know we are only talking blue and yellow, but the photo I have are of heavely rusted and deteriated engines.
I was wondering if any one could suggest a source of good diagrams for C&O engines, and a recomendation on a good engine manufacturer to purchase a undecorated unit from. This will be my first N scale engine, and I would like to get a good quality one.
My track will be Atlas code 55 and I do want to run DCC.
