Hi folks
Is it correct to use a Southern Pacific EMD F3 A&B powered diesel locomotive (Black Widow) with the Kato Southern Pacific "Lark" train?
Thank you.
 
I won't say it never happened but it would have been extremely rare. The usual motive power was E-7's or E-8's painted in the SP Daylight Orange scheme. The train was often hauled by PA and PB-1's painted in the same color scheme. Towards the last days of the Lark, the usual motive powere was E-8's and SDP-45's in the bloody nose scheme. Unlike the Santa Fe, the SP almost never used F units in passsenger service on any of their named trains.
