I had this Tyco Industrial Switcher lying around so I painted it in a NJ Transit fantasy paint scheme. The orange side stripes and the front black stripes were tough to get right. Hint: sometimes it takes more than 2 tries to get it right...... I used Scotch Blue painters tape for masking. Beware it will dis-figure silver/aluminum paint so one has to figure out the order to paint the engine.
I will post other NJT and Amtrak MoW engines I have completed later.....

Really cool fantasy paint job, AF. I like the way the stripes look against the black.

I love fantasy schemes and this one is no different, excellent job and very eye catching. Does it run well?

It runs as good as it looks.....
It has the Red Box motor/chassis assembly not the crap Power Torque motor.
