“Dog’s Breakfast” Whatever else might be said of GTI in the 80’s (typically rather negative), they certainly could concoct some interesting power lashups (at least in paint, if not—in this case—by model). Here, D&H POPY (Portland, ME to Potomac Yard, VA) is southbound on Track A of the NEC at Halethorpe on July 3, 1987 at 18:55, with five units, including (1) B&M GP39-2 350, in Guilford colors (ex-D&H 7610) (2) D&H GP39-2 7418, still in Reading green (ex-RDG 3418) (3) B&M GP40 339, with the Guilford 'G', but still in CR blue (ex-CR 3232) (4) D&H GP39-2 7404, in D&H blue/yellow (ex-RDG 3404) (5) B&M GP39-2 351, in Guilford colors (ex-D&H 7620).
Not
just heritage schemes, not just commemorative schemes - this album is devoted to some of the world's most interesting paint schemes, past or present.
Crazy pool power consists, colorful gatherings of locomotives at a diesel service area, or a mixture of colorful locomotives in storage lines. A minimum of four different paint schemes required.
