Well don't fret none, I got your answer right here- With three new E8s, including the 4025 above,
and the 4026:
and the 4003 in three paint schemes:

1951 as delivered from EMD,
Late 1960s simplified,
...and when it became B&O 1468.Many Thanks to Jens-Chris Baerenz for bringing us the E8!db

Feb-07-02, 10:03 AM (EST) 1. "RE: a C&O E8 would be VERY NICE" Dadbill, you certainly cornered the C&O engine market! After C&O 4033 is uploaded, what is your next project?Is anyone working on C&O livery? We could sure use a caboose, heavyweight baggage car, and a RPO car.

Feb-07-02, 10:19 AM (EST) 2. "RE: a C&O E8 would be VERY NICE" LAST EDITED ON Feb-07-02 AT 10:52 AM (EST)Hi Ches! I have the Caboose, the Heavyweight cars, GP30, and U25b (plus some other F7 stuff which you'll probably see before the other stuff). I am trying to get it all together, though, before I start working on dirty oxidized GP7s textures and batch files to switch those back and forth. It's all coming!
I'm going put priority on the caboose and the heavyweight cars.I'm sure everyone will Love the 4003! I had fun playing around with the batch files that switch between the paint schemes before finally letting it go... Available this Friday if all goes well!!!Thanks!

Thanks again!

You have this C&O stuff down to an art...and a science too.I just had an interesting thought: Did "Pere Marquette" have any E8s on the roster prior to their full absorbtion by C&O? <bg>Thanks for the locos,Henry Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Feb-07-02, 10:46 AM (EST) 4. "RE: a C&O E8 would be VERY NICE" The Pere Marquette had E7s, like those that TrainArtisan is working on right now! I have already asked them about a PM. If they don't release one, I have the textures ready to go!db

Feb-08-02, 01:41 PM (EST) 7. "RE: a C&O E8 would be VERY NICE" In addition to the last question about projects, I thought it would be nice to post little batch files (for all the existing locos that have multiple paint schemes) so you could easily switch between the paint schemes instead of the copy/paste method. Then I noticed some of the Fs didn't have the original textures in a subfolder, so I created those, then I noticed some of the textures could use a face-lift, fix this, fix that, anyway, it became a long dragged out process before the night was over, and all over posting a simple batch file.
I would still like to do this, and I hope that I can without major updates.db

Feb-08-02, 03:49 PM (EST) 8. "RE: a C&O E8 would be VERY NICE" The batch files really do make it easier to change the textures! Nice improvement to the process when you have multiple versions of the same unit.Thanks,

Feb-08-02, 04:01 PM (EST) 9. "RE: a C&O E8 would be VERY NICE" Yeah, I thought it would be a great idea, but then, pow! I opened the can of worms and found all this stuff I want to fix. After working on the E8 and trying to perfect it, going back to the Fs I noticed a lot of mistakes. Guess we'll have to have some texture updates...db

Feb-10-02, 01:27 PM (EST) 12. "RE: a C&O E8 would be VERY NICE" Hey Ches, in the other thread I mentioned I am going to conentrate efforts on the new CSX paint scheme, but I'm going to try to work on the caboose in tandem.
