Hello there,h

I spotted this loco in Scott Williamsons article...

and was wondering if this or similar paint scheme was copied from other loco paint schemes. I am wondering of the source of the following locos scheme ...

There are a few paint schemes here in Australia copied from US schemes

Victorian Railways from Erie  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victorian_Railways_S_class_(diesel)

More great engines from Intermountain.  They run great.  

I am going to build a freelance N scale layout that will represent the Norfolk & Western operations in North Carolina and Virginia in the mid-late 1950's.

I am finding it difficult to find N scale Norfolk & Western diesels (DCC ready) for that period, such as RS-3, RS-11 and GP9, among others.  Can anyone tell me where I can find them? 

Will I have to decorate loco's myself?

Thanks.

Called the local Train Shop and they had one package of these couplers left!  I had them set them aside & drove over that afternoon to get them.  You may be able to see the cracks in the two couplers on the worm gear shafts.  They come off their shaft's with very little effort (since they are cracked).  Easy fix now since I have the new parts.  Emailed Athearn asking if they by chance had the sideframes I need for the SW7.
