Milwaukee EP-2 bipolar electric by custom brass.

Compared to a steam engine, the electric is a pretty simple 'break down'.

I checked which wheels are ground versus hot and made a label so I assemble it correctly versus a steam engine is standard on ground/hot.

Of the two that I have, this one will be yellow/grey paint scheme.

I always paint the yellow first but, this time, with a red separation line, I should have done the red, first. Hope I can put the stripe on 2nd or 3rd, before/after the grey: will decide on that, later.

With today being 76 and tomorrow's high of 46, and painting in the detached shop, I'm been 'humping' to get as much painted as possible before I have to use my kerosene heater. First time that I've painted 4 different colors at once. Besides the EP-2, I did the DM&IR caboose and put the GN green on the GN O-8 mike's boiler.
