Show off your reskins!

@Daylightrain will this come with the ability to renumber what the train number is for the passenger train ones? Cause I would like to be able to renumber that board to say X-97 or X-99 when I run it with daylight coaches or something. Looks good, keep it up!

The last arrival, fires would be dropped and the equipment stored serviceable after arriving at its new temporary home. (Not a reskin in the top photo, but just to explain the subsequent reskins below).

Sitting in the new storage siding, the new home for the PJRM collection, at the rear is the famous Southern Pacific Business Car 150 "Sunset", the famous open platform lightweight.

All reskins by me (except the 1610 tender and freight cars)

I think there's something wrong with ARN or whatever numbering system you're using, 'cause it says 4414 on the side of the cab and on the numberboard in front of the bell, but says 4410 on the numberboards and on each side of the headlight.

You could say it has an identity crisis :hehe: but TP14 is right, its still a WIP.

Everyone seems to like sharing their creations in realistic settings in order to make their efforts stand out. So with my somewhat botched attempt to recreate a Phase III AEM-7(AC), I thought this would be its most appropriate setting.

Is this the next "Seeing Trainz" from SJT?
 
As summer 2017 ends, Gurtantown will put away regular steam and its 5 ex-Reading commuter coaches, using just their lightweight stock with sealed windows. These essentially unmodified cars will reemerge next summer in the new red livery with modern roller bearings and electric heat. 8 HW coaches on lease will leave, and be replaced with the usual steam consist of 5 RDG Coaches+combine, which will be replaced by the 4 SP Harriman coaches belonging to a group (that has the SP Business Car Collection and 794 and 1610) for steam use.

The new livery (for heavyweights) is designed to fit more with the railroad's set of red and white or stainless lightweights rebuilt at Colorado Railcar, bringing the 1970s livery into the 21st century. Here the new scheme is seen on the railroad's business car and the new passenger observation car rebuilt from one of the Reading Coaches (6 coaches and 2 combines has become 5 coaches).

In 1890 the Santa Fe created a train that ran from Cincinnati to Phoenix as an excellent route for both freight and passenger service. To sale the southwest experience to the eastern customers the Santa Fe called the train the Turquoises. It became a very popular train for the winters in the east and the summers in the west. In the early 1900's the Art Deco and streamlining look became all the rage and the railroads followed suit. Here we have the new Turquoises coming into Cincinnati approaching the Zinzinnati Zeppelin manufacturing plant showing off one of their hansom new streamlined locomotives.
