Yea I like the KCS and TFM Engines. But, will I ever see a Gateway Western Locomotive in the file library. We have a lot of those locomotives in the KCS yard. Below is an attached Picture of a Gateway Western Sign and 2 locomotives. I am sorry about the quality of the pictures of the locomotives but I hope the picture of the sign would make up for the difference.

Thanks guys Chris, i have a rather full plate with repaints at the moment. I might do one later, it will be a while though. The other option is you could try a repaint. There are a lot of freeware paint programs out there. If you need a hand, just ask one of us in the forums, we wont bite (much). Now, these are being uploaded this afternoon....Southern Pacific U33C #7842 with weathering (Really a C30-7) Darn - i just noticed i didnt change the cab number! lol Southern Pacific U33C #7835 without weathering. Cotton Belt U33C #7785 with the "L Shaped" cab windows. Nashville & Eastern C30-7 #7084 NAFTA Railway AC4400CW #2000 - These will NOT be uploaded until I get NALW's permission TFM AC4400CW #2601 Hope you guys enjoy these. I know I enjoyed repainting these beautiful models from NALW & John Peterson >Mike Forster< Perth, Westen Australiapacificnational_nr103@hotmail.com
Well, I am working on securing permission to do some Amtrak Superliner cars. I have some nice freeware programs that will help me with it (TGA Tool) and a nice photo editing program on which I have already practiced doing cab view repaints on the SD40-2 cabviews, and the SW-8 Cabviews, to match the units that they're for. I have also done lots of unit renumberings and UP Patch jobs on some of my locomotives. However I found a unit of Gateway Western Units that would be very do, that are the top 2 units pictured at http://www.trainweb.org/davesdepot/Gateway/GWWR.html . GWWR Units #4097 and #4099 are both GP38-2s and the shape file comes with the MSTS so I can start the repaints of these right away. Wish me luck on them.
