Very neat. But I dunno if it's a factory job...there are some small chips in the paint that are black underneath...

Never seen that paint scheme before on a Mantua steam. By the way, I just ordered and received a smoke box cover for the particular locomotive. Got it from Model Power/Mantua Classics.
Unspoken expectations are premeditated failures.

Still curious about this one. Sure seems like a factory job that Mantua may have tried, 'ala the "Weyerhauser" green loco. Black smokebox front is questionable though, and just noticed it's missing its headlight.
