Title: 60611 70 tonner
Post by: stj_lc on January 19, 2011, 01:43:51 PM
It looks like the new color scheme for the 60611 GE 70 tonner is copied from the Salzburg short line scheme.  Is it? What great news if so! Hard to believe that this didn't happen until after i had painted the undecs I bought.

I was not aware that Salzburg has a railroad?

One thing I like about the GE 70 tonner (I have 2) is that it is undecorated, which allows me to apply my own RR lettering to the loco easily.  I have one as a yard switcher and a second one in MOW service.
