Yeah.  So if anybody ever tells you that you have to paint your locos, tell 'em nope and show 'em a pic.

I have a friend who worked for the CB&Q until they cut all of the firemen.  He put the 3652 into the roundhouse for the night in K.C. Mo.  He said it was a real nice locomotive.

The 5632, and GTW 4-6-2 5629, were both privately owned by the same guy who through a series of perfect-storm type bunglings,  let them both be scrapped at very late dates.

The Q's O class 4-8-4 has always been one of my favorite engines.  One other one survives on display in Colorado, ironically the 5629 if I have it right.  There may be a third.  I especially like the Mars light, which I recently found out was first invented by the Mars candy company as an advertising gimmick.
