Now the rumor is that the P&W is getting 4 SD45s, one of which is still in SP paint.
Jeff I replied to this but it didn't fwd to the MRS Forum so I'm reposting it directly. It's a bit dated but should still be of interest. Jon C SP Inyo Sub...........................................
Jeff, did you know that P2K Canada did a Genesse Wyoming Familyscheme lettered Huron Central. SD45? Very cool I have one. There is one on Ebay right now, here is the item number. 5958506139 or search Huron or even SD-45. This person is nuts, I payed like 50 bucks plus shipping, but at least you can check it out. The P2Ks SD-45s run very good. And Joe, NOTE the nose is a seperate part!

Jon,
It's probably a very good thing that I didn't see your post until long after the auction was over... as is, $125 for a loco is currently much too rich for my blood.

Joe, I re-read this ops report and I find it very interesting! do you think we will have a report with more details about the dispatcher job? I'm interested in knowing more about the papers he use and how he keeps track of all trains on the marker board.
