A parcel arrived this evening containing a new BLI sound loco, this time an Elgin Joliet and Eastern NW2. The livery is one of the most colourful I’ve seen to date - orange over mid green - and I think it is one of the smartest around.
It didn’t take too long to weather it down a bit, ready for some switching on the layout.
Now for some video footage and to get a caboose painted up for EJ&E.

The video footage uploaded quicker than I expected and it shows the caboose painted and weathered, but as yet unlettered.

Thankfully, I have some Champ decals for EJ&E, so I’ll get that done tomorrow.

While that is a nice switcher I never cared for that particular EJ&E color scheme.[xx(]
What was they thinking?
Everything Grant touches looks good. [tup]
Caboose added to finish off the EJ&E train.
I lettered each side slightly differently, one side as per available photo (EJ&E) and one side using available decals (Elgin Joliet & Eastern)
