Hello,
thank you for your compliment
And yes, it looks pretty well!!
Unfortunately the MILW stopped its electrification and furthermore that the Joes could not been used elsewhere - perhaps looking like your fictional color scheme.
Looks like you operate it in service of a fictional RR running through a fictional landscape - something about coal hauling??

Didn't some of the Joes end up at South Shore?
Yes - Out of the 20 original locomotives, MILW got 12 Joes, South Shore got 3, and a railroad in Brazil had the last 5 of them.
In fact, actually, the Illinois RR Museum in Union I believe it is, still has 1 South Shore Joe and it does run. Well at least it did last year. No idea about currently, though..

Yeah, I knew about the MILW stopping the electrified portions of their route. Awful timing, too, because right afterwards an oil crisis. Who knows, if they had maybe not shut off the electrics they could've survived a little longer or still be around today. Or not. Then again, their electrics then were about ready to die anyways, especially the 70-year old boxcabs.
Maybe in this fictional universe the SLRR bought the collapsing MILW instead of Soo and completely rebuilt the inner workings of the Joes... or something. Best realistic solution I got to that
Yes - fictional railroad & fictional landscape hauling coal for this particular route, along with other mixed goods I have yet to work in.
Cheers,
SM

I just couldn't resist looking at these pics and not building an electric coal route! What catenaries did you use?
All on the DLS:
<kuid2:82412:41105:1> MILW-SPC-SP-1-20m-003
<kuid:82412:41101> MILW-SPC-SP-1-40m-001
<kuid:82412:41102> MILW-SPC-SP-1-40m-002
<kuid:82412:41103> MILW-SPC-SP-1-40m-003
<kuid:82412:41104> MILW-SPC-SP-1-40m-004
<kuid:82412:31101> MILW-SPC-TO-1-001
They are lovely catenaries.

Where can I find that? I've been wanting to make a complete Crescent Limited trainset, but all there is is magicland's coach.
EDIT:
I'm able to reskin magicland's smoothside passenger cars, but the corrugated passenger cars, like those found on the Crescent, I find difficult to do because you have to get 'into the nooks and crannies' of the corrugated sides.

I got it at the same place where I got this:
It looks like a reskin of landrvr's (Sorry if I spelled it wrong) California Zephyr.

It's just Landrvr1's stock SP E7... But I do have a GS E7 somewhere around here...
ok, did not see Landrvr1 SP anything on DLS...

It's not on the DLS, he left the community and requested that his content not be transferred other than via email.
This is the best way to get landrvr1 content
