Hey guys. While surfing the web I found this interesting railroad. The MMA is owned by Railworld Inc, which also owns a few other Railroads. One such RR is the San Luis Central (SLC) which connects to the San Luis and Rio Grande. Well I found pictures of SLRG's first painted unit, which coincidentally happens to be a GE B39-7E painted in a Maroon and Gold Scheme. Hmmm.... looks interesting to me :wink:

Nice! Did you notice the ex-CDAC F40 in the first pic?

So who do you THINK owns the SLRG?

hopefully they paint some more MMA units before SLRG.

It's the product of an unlikely merger between D&RGW and Lehigh Valley!

I wonder if they had to pay royalties to UP for using that name and typeface... :-D
