I posted this also in the D&H Yahoo Group.

Tower 55 Products has been painting some of its models of the
newer EMD SD70ACe, SD70M-2's, GEvo's, etc. in UP Heritage pain
schemes. They also have created a "Classic Concept" Series, in which
these new locomotives have been painted in classic paint schemes of
their own, such as EMD's in Northern Pacific, BN, as well as CP Multi
Mark scheme and Milwaukee Road GEvo's. Kind of like a "what if?"
concept I guess, but I like it. They all are available with or w/o
Sound and DCC. I eMailed them to see if they have any plans
for anything in the D&H Lightning Stripe. That would be nice. If
anyone else is interested in inquiring about a D&H model, here is the
link(s):

Tower 55 has already sent me a reply from my eMail to them earlier:



"Mark,

I agree with your idea and have been studying it. Possibly we can add
this when we do the CSX ES44DC. I think the D&H in blue/ silver/
yellow would look absolutely stunning.

Keep an eye on the site and will see what we can do to make this possible.

Sincerely,

Brian Marsh
Tower 55"


Maybe a few more eMails will help. Wouldn't a modern engine in D&H Lightning Stripes be sweet ????

Yes I saw this and I also sent a e-mail about it. Mark said he has had many requests for this to happen. So maybe they consider it and make some.

It's a real image.

Just not a real train.

Wait- Leprechauns are real!? Awesome! I'm gonna catch one and ride it!

All because Otto said I could. :-D :wink:

Trevor, that would be photoshopped. It's not even a Gevo. Looks like a Dash 9 or AC4400, but I can't tell without seeing the opposite side.
