Now how did I know you were going to pull a rabbit out of your hat.

Still one of my favorites.  Special appearance by the SD90MAC.

Here’s one of mine:

Here are some of my "Non-Black" Steam Locomotives. From Left to Right:

Lionel 6-18018 Mikado #4501

From Lionel Set 6-31713 Pacific #1396

Weaver QC-1081LP Pacific #1380

MTH 20-3466-1 Pacific #1407

Lionel 6-28057 Mountain #1491

Williams 5013 Pacific #1401

Williams Mikado #4869

@Tom Morris

Wow, those are sharp Tom, especially that Weaver. I don't believe I have seen that one, or if I have, it is definitely an old video about converting it to TMCC. I'll have to double check to see if that is indeed a Pacific that was being converted. I do know that it was a Weaver Streamlined Engine as I think that they also did the Cincinnatian as well.

@Dave NYC Hudson PRR K4 Weaver did do the Cincinnatian P7D Pacific.  They show up on the auction sites from time to time and are a little more common than the Sunset / 3rd Rail version.  A beautiful locomotive. 

Let's lift our glasses to Tom here for this amazing photo!

Possibly one of the best assemblage of SOUTHERN steam I've even seen.

Yes they did, I meant the people in the video I saw were also converting that to TMCC like the other Weaver engine. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

Question for the group: can anyone confirm if the prototype Southern steamers in Virginia Green really had oxide red roofs?

Probably not what you were looking for but this engine is one of my favorites.

It's not black.

Maybe ask on the Real Trains topic. One of my posts about the model of the K4 Torpedo sort of went off the rails and got closed down because of that. See if anyone knows over there, start a topic asking that.

Bobfett..right on time!  I am Enjoying a Yuengling right now!!🤠

nice!

John

Pure fantasy. Lionel 4-6-0 European-style.

Charlie

@cpowell - I like it, but you should put either L.M.S. or the "Lion and Wheel" on the tender to complete the effect.

Great work and I enjoyed the picture

Don

Does a Greenbrier count ?

Some paint jobs on Lionel  2-4-2 locos that were All Black looking the same.

Home made Tootle pull train engine

My Frisco Meteor #4501. Made by MTH, I have converted it to TMCC.

@87smokemetalic

Are you sure that's not an Orangebrier?

Long-ago bashed Williams brass Heavy Pacific into Louisville & Nashville K-5 stream-styled #275. The L&N had 3 stream-styled Pacifics.

Old Lobaugh (I think) brass tender; TAS TMCC/sound.

Here are a few more of mine:

Brimtoy from UK

Distler from Germany

Japanese from TN

JEP from France.

Best Wishes and thanks for starting this @c.sam, it has been fun!

Don

@Don McErlean,  Really like this one from Germany!

Southern 4501 Mikado.

Okay, I need to get in on this one which I should have been able to do right off the bat, but I had to dig this engine out of the box(that should have been opened months ago). This is the C&O Yellow Belly Hudson Pat @harmonyards did for me along with the passenger cars with full interiors.

Look at the water hose.

This thing is heavy, Pat really went all out to make sure that this engine can pull anything.

Close up of the deck plate and water hose.

A peek inside the cab.

Does this count?   Lionel 763.

Absolutely yes

I forgot one.

TCA swap meet table, Louisiana, some years ago.

Not mine.

Some sort of LSU thing, I guess - though, back home, Auburn could make use of it, too.
