www.patriotrail.com After buying the Rarus Railway last year, they have decided to bring back the name Butte, Anaconda, & Pacific!:thumbs_up: Now if they could just bring back the old electrics!
I was hoping they'd make this choice. The name "RARUS" was disconnected at best. It meant nothing of true value to that area. A mistake the Class 1 alphabet boys could learn from. Boxcab E50
I just read this in the local paper. The BA&P comes full-circle! I wonder what the engines might be repainted into?
I'd guess engines will be painted to their company paint scheme. Red/blue. Although the old BA&P colors would be nice. Boxcab E50
That was just to show what Patriot Rail might do. To me, old BA&P diesel colors had too much yellow, to resemble anything NKP or D&RGW. There may still be a unit which is partially painted that way. I don't recall... Boxcab E50
Nice to something like this return...... BAP electric #59. Not sure if I have the location or year with original pic. Gonna have to check on that. Maybe.
