Ephrata Valley Railroad AHM BL2 diesel #247 "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in Heaven." - Matthew 5:16
I have to admit being a fan of your locomotive fleet. They are the sort of bold new image many railroads adopted in the 1960s and 1970s after years of austere dip job paint schemes. It looks like the Lehigh Valley without actually being the Lehigh Valley.

Thank you! Yes, the Lehigh Valley was a major inspiration behind the Ephrata Valley diesel schemes, although the white slant-nose was inspired by the yellow and white noses of Penn Central FL9's.
