Rob Sarna changes paint schemes of former BNSF locomotives

We are delighted to welcome back Rob Sarna to the WMRC. Rob, once a long time member, had moved back from southern Ontario a while back and rejoined the club this month.
 
Rob submitted two HO Scale GP 9's to the club’s model display at our February meeting. He changed the paint schemes of the Geeps to the Huron & Yale Northern (HYN) railway.
 
The NYN is a freelance short line rail line operating 394 miles from Huron, S.D. to Appleton, MN. It was formerly a DMÈ BNSF branch line. On unit 1800 he used his own mix called Imperial Purple and was painted with Microscale. VTRR stripe decals were added. Unit 1802 Microscale generic lettering and Herald King BN stripes were used.
