Hi  All,    

While on  a  wander  for  reference found  this loco  an N  scale    SD40-2  

On 27 February 1991, UP 3593 was painted with a U. S. Army-inspired camouflage paint scheme, named Desert Victory, to commemorate the 66 UP employees who participated in Operation Desert Storm; repainted back to standard UP yellow and gray on 11 October 1991.

sounds like a great engine to model....

it's a shame the british companies don't do anything like that because i think something like this is a great tribute to those men and women who fought

I can just see the result of the inquiry now. "I didn't see it coming officer."
