Final train drawing of 2024, an ALTA GP9 "torpedo boat" heads up a secondary train sometime after 1955.

Nicely done! The horizontal shading really gives it a sense of motion

Very nice! So ALTA runs long-hood forward?

Dual controls on the geeps, so we don't have to turn the engines for some of the runs.
But yes, all the RS-1 through RSD-5s run long hood forward, so this continues the tradition a bit!

I run my RS-1s long hood forward, but my GP7 runs short hood. But since I don't turn locos, they run the opposite way when heading off the branch line.
