I saw on RLD Hobbies web site that the new SD-45’s will be coming out in Montana Rail Link and in Great Northern colors, along with a 3 bay hopper. Aristo’s website doesn’t mention anything about it.
Anybody have the gouge?
Robby’s good. If he’s put it up, it’s happening.

Here is a pic of the first run Aristo SD-45 in GN colors. It was a bit snowy, that day.

Oh , THAT one. I’ve already got one of those [Yawn]. Almost four years ago last ime they released it. Thort it might be a proper GN scheme… tac www.ovgrs.org
Naw, GN got real cheap in the later years and declined to put on the gold stripes. Still, it beats all black! Now this is the real GN color scheme, though a bit long in the tooth.

Even the toned down GN scheme of just Omaha Orange and Pullman Green beat the final GN blue and white “Big Sky” scheme of GN’s last years.
