I finally figured out this whole HTML thing. I put of one of my SD90MAC’s in my profile. Please check it out and let me know what you think. This model and others like it have upset alot of people around here. Opinions and suggestions are welcome.
That’s a good looking locomotive. The color scheme looks great on it. It’s a shame that some folks have forgotten that it’s a hobby and that it’s supposed to be fun.
Keep having fun,

My SD90s are factory painted for UP mainly because I’m not sure I would succeed the way you did. I don’t care if there is no Rock Island anymore 'cause you brought it up into your own future ! Congratulations.
That looks great. I just wish I could paint like that! The Rock Island scheme suits the loco amazingly well. I’ve always had a soft spot for the old Blue/white paint scheme - does anyone know if any locos are available RTR in this scheme? I have a Bachmann U36B in N in this paint scheme, but nothing in HO.
I make my photos by doing the following:
Insert scanned photo to “My Documents”
Click the image botton(the yellow one to the right of the e-mail botton
Then type between the “img” symbols C:/My Documents
Then type after that the pictures name (i.e. anyphoto)
Then type down “.jpg” (or any other ending) The result should say
“C:\My Documents\anyphoto”
Click “preview” to make sure the photo is there
I put one of my photo on the bottom to show what the finished photo should look like (click to view in a larger size).
