Good Day,
As I have mentioned before, the Swafford Series color schemes are color schemes from the past represented on 21st Century Diesel Locomotives and rolling stock. My goal is to create inventive and dynamic color schemes that would look striking on model trains. The original drawing is by Michael Eby. These ES44AC's and SD70ACe's were modified and painted by Frank Swafford.
I hope you enjoy the color schemes.

Nice job Frank, B units, who would have thought!
Those heritage schemes look great.

Since ten is the maximum number of merits that can be awarded for any outstanding performance, the Swafford personal record is awarded ten merits for imagination, and, separately, ten merits for execution. You should be aware that authorization from top management was necessary in order to accomplish this. Congratulations.
They are fantastic as always....but no N&W?....I'm hurt....
Great work....
ATSF units which are not the overated Warbonnets! Great!
If I was to see an Alaska RR, I would jump, or The Katy,
The colorations are just fabulous, My ???
What can be done with these ! will you be selling ???
thanks a bunch
Nice work. I love the Burlington black, and the N&W is stunning. I've been wondering what a 21st century Milwaukee Road design would look like, thinking of a redesign rather than just the same old black and orange. I've got an undecorated Atlas Toaster electric (AEM-7) that I'm planning to paint in some kind of "new" Milwaukee Road scheme.
Hey Frank, I missed the SD70ACe in CSX. I had hoped for a new PS3 model. I'm wondering if they will have the new CSX logo on it if they do it. What do you think?
Would have loved to get the white and blue demo scheme too.
Now I'm liking that green BN, both CBQs, C&O, B&O......you're going to cost me some money aren't you?
Good Evening,
My idea of a 21st Century Milwaukee Road SD70ACe. I painted this back in 2010.
Regards,
Frank
What, no CNW/CGW?!?
