------------------------------------------------------- > I actually quite like Rail Force One... Could it be due in part to the fact that Air Force One livery, from which UP 4141's scheme is derived, was developed by industrial designer Raymond Loewy? He also brought us Pennsy's T-1, GG-1, Coke's "hour glass" bottle, among others. * JB * Anyone wanna lay odds on how long it'll take one of the HO mfg's to make a model? Personally, I might hold out for a decal set and and create a generic POTUS locomotive. Date: 10/24/05 15:39 Re: UP 4141 - College Station Author: trainfreek prr4828 Wrote:
