    The Penn Lake Railway's paint shop has been very busy over the last few months.

    First up, the shop forces turned out a couple locomotives and cabooses:

    The RS3 started of as a Atlas unit, factory painted for Delaware-Lackawanna. I removed the DL lettering and replaced it with Penn Lake lettering:

    Changing the body color, for this S2, I used a combination of D&H and custom PL decals:

    And the attendant cabooses:
