Three paint-job lashup! Personally The GM&O black and white is classier than the other two paint jobs.

Not the best paint scheme ICG ever came up with....GM&O much better.

I would call this Class One Back Country Railroading. This picture speaks to me.

Very nice Bernie! Shot an ABS local on the last active part near Tuscaloosa and wondered if the track had looked any better when it was a mainline, I guess not!
