Because of the diamond replacement in Toledo, could the GR&P reroute a couple of trains over the DT&C to Cincinatti? There will only be like two regular trains, maybe an extra.

Sure but they will have the lowest priority.

Could you build me a exact replica of the NKP 765? The GR&P is thinking of running excursion trains, and would like a steam locomotive to be hauling the trains when they run.

Sure plus it'd be cheaper than ordering a deisel since theres no electronics!(unless you want them lol), since the TSCR cancelled their order of a diesel, things are speeding up, heres the list:
3 TSCR K4 Steamers - Finish by 4/20/12
4 DR&EC SD40-3W's - Finish by 4/20/12
1 NKP Style Berkshire Steamer - Finish by 4/31/12
4 ARR SD70IAC's - Finish by 5/5/12
4 GR&P ES44AC's - Finish by 5/20/12

Ok we also have a couple of old coaches stored away, need repainted, new doors, and new windows and seats but other than that they are assembled. Holler if you need them.

I see that the list has moved up, and does that mean the SD40-3W's are finished today?

Could the you build four ES44AC's for the GR&P? I'm going to need some more power when the line to Chicago opens up. The paint on them will basically be the simple IC black paint scheme.

Plain black?

Yep, with the white lettering Grand Rapids & Pontiac on the sides, and white lettering of GR&P on the nose and rear.

What font do you want?

Grand Rapids and Pontiac and GR&P. The size of the letters would be about the same size as the "DT&C" lettering on your C40-8W on the first post of this thread.

Actually we have 8 ES44AC's sitting behind the shop, 4 are in DT&C and 4 are in grey primer, these were built for the EJ&E but since the TSCR owns them they cancelled the order due to their huge roster, we could get those done very soon for you if you want?

Sure, that would be great!

Not EMD you don't: We have parts rights, and are working on getting a joint shop.
