Thank you for the addition to the NP fleet of passenger equipment, downloaded and running the rails. May I ask you this, any chance of building the NP Business car "Yellowstone River" in the famous Loewy Paint Scheme Question

Nothing showed more pride of the railroad than the business car running at the end of one of theirpassenger trains. All railroad personnel were all work when they saw this car riding the rails. Question

Did you say Milwaukee Road, you have my full attention. Being from Wisconsin, the home of the Milwaukee Road, you bet. Gaetan, may I ask what type of power you have planned for the Hiawatha ? This will be one colorful set....you can count on an order from me. Say I have to ask, down the rail will we see anything from the C&NW "400 Route" ? Wink

Gaetan.

The 'classic' version would be the orange and black. Starting in 1955, the Milwaukee ran trains with Union Pacific, and much of their equipment was re-painted in yellow and silver with red lettering to match Union Pacific.

I would recommend doing the orange and black version. Lukas has created a lot of rolling stock in orange and black for the RMD 2.0 route and a BLW set in the same color would be a great addition.
