Love that scheme!
My LOTW offering is this N-Scale Arnold all-red Deutsche-Bahn (DB) Class 218 diesel loco.

Nice variety this week. Those Popsicles are certainly arresting. Before the UP buyout, we used to see a lot of these Bloody Noses in El Paso. This sturdy old Athearn BB is just a great workhorse, even without the handrails. I paid $15 for it at 2019's Albuquerque Train Show, and it just does the job without a hiccup. I enjoyed running it this weekend.

Here's my Cary bodied FT I built back in the 1980's

Yeah, Tyco made 2 different types of switchers for the GI Joe sets. The first one was a typical Plymouth diesel switcher, while in later sets, they substituted an AHM-looking switcher, which busss has.
