New look on the Montana Central

[StickyMonk]

<font color="336633">[b]I have finally got round to doing some painting of my Montana Central locos, here are are a few of them, there is still quite a lot of work to do on them (painting, detailing) and they still need the MC logo and road numbers adding, these will be printed on an Alps.

Those colors remind me of a railroad- Looks like there might be a little Rio Grande influence?

Mat, is the main color on those loco's blue ? with the yellow stripping all you need to do is take the tiger stripes off an add "Baltimore And Ohio" HA! What is that first switcher ? an S-2 or S-4? I take it that its one of the Atlas productions????
