Looks great! Only needs ashcan signal lights on both ends of the roof.

Really? What’s next, a GG-1, Little Joe, how about an Electroliner.

If it roves anything it is that the BW scheme looks good on just about anything. Always liked it better than that grey and scarlet mess.

Looks good, but the hogger will get very tired of that silver paint in his face!

Shorter shank Kadees will look much better.

That dark green unit featured in the near back seems the right length for an SDL39.

I think this proves the theory that the black widow scheme would look good on anything...even the ugly BL-2!

A pair of the BL-2 units back to back would give 2700 hp to power commuter trains in the day.

There would need to be boilers in the short hoods which was a BL-2 option. The boiler exhaust went up through the cab behind the front window divider. If that pipe was extended a couple of feet off the roof then a barrel oscillating light could be mounted on the roof centered on the window divider with mounts extending the housing ahead of the exhaust like what was done for the sand filler hatch on first generation GP and SD units.]

Yikes!! A Southern Pacific "Black Widow" BL2! At least the paint job made that ugly-ass BL2 look better than most other BL2's. Great paint job on this "what if" locomotive.
