Does anyone have this loco (rd #er’s are 700, 724 and 777)? I seen the two that are on their website, but I would like to see some more differrnt shots of it. I hope someone can help me in my search.
Thanks,

I hope you won’t take this as excessively condescending, but are you aware that Tower 55/Overland has a whole series of contemporary engines painted in “classic” scemes? They have one contemporary EMD wide cab available in SP Black Widow that was superceeded by SP sometime in the late 50s, before the first sketch for the current model engine saw paper. Looks pretty good too!
Why do you want more pictures of it? If you have a problem with Tower55, let me set your mind at ease. I bought one of their SP Black Widow ES44AC engines and think it is superior to anything else in details and running qualities.
Sure, the paint scheme is not realistic because the Black Widow scheme went out long before there were ES44ACs, but they do say they are “what if” paint schemes.
The Digitrax SoundFX decoder in them is excellent.
You can probably see more photos of the Santa Fe version by going to the Tower55 web site.
Well I’m jealous , I wanted to get one of the Black Widow es44’s , couldn’t part with the bucks. I model the SP as if they still existed and It would have fit in just fine. I do like tower 55 units they are nice.
I am referring to the new “Classic Concept” ES44DC locomotive in the Yellow/Blue ‘Freight Warbonnet’ (road numbers 700, 724, 777). The reason why I want to see more pictures of it is for a custom paint job I want to get done using a GE AC4400CW loco from Kato. The pictures would be of some help to see what I can get done on an N scale AC4400CW.
Cacole, I did check on their website, and they only have two pictures, it does not show the front/nose, or any othre features that might be interesting.
Thanks,
Roger
