The painters didn't say as they were busy cleaning up.  Note all the light and cab window protective coverings.

          Looking very nice. Understand the pride in doing this too as I painted two small locomotives, four passenger cars and a caboose for the DCF&B Railroad at Dodge City, Ks.  Best part is pulling the tape and seeing the finished product.

Hey it's a WATCO service track! Straight rail dirt road crossing equals service track, many spots in Kansas.
