Nice looking engines. I think they look alot like Alaska Railroad's SD70Macs

It's the exact same design, with different color variation and different font. Both were based off the original BNSF scheme.

They look good. Nice picture!

Wow! These locomotives are a lot better looking then the red and blue ones. THose locomotives looked so dull but these are fantastic! It really looks a lot more "Florida-like" :)
|
I didn't know fec was getting M-2's. Nice! Much better then buying Ge's.
|
I love it when the smaller Railroads get BIG new power, great photo!!!!
|
I'm gonna agree that smaller railroads getting new/bigger power is awesome! However, the paint scheme is so unoriginal and I really thought it was an ARR loco from the thumbnail. They need a new brighter Floridia-like scheme. I think they should have had a design contest and gone with that or at least the yellow/orange scheme. I can't wait to see em in person, hopefully in March. Nice cath, P.F.
