Good morning, I’m considering re-painting a pair of these Alcos, or should I say, having them re-painted. I know there are some reputable people out there that do this kind of work. In fact, I believe I have seen their names on this forum but cannot seem to find them. I searched a few times but did come up with their names. Any help or suggestions appreciated.

Mike,
You might contact Jeff Sohn at the link below. He has a big following in some quarters.
Mike…are you going with the Lionel 2032 Erie paint scheme or something closer to the actual engine. I posted a Lionel 2032 Erie picture and the real Erie FA-1 on the thread LIONEL ROCK ISLAND 2031: THE POSTWAR ALCo FA-1.
