Barry's Model Railroad

This is an accounting of my attempts at model railroads N scale and HO or OO. I find it to be a lot of fun. I concentrate my efforts on The New York Central, Ann Arbor, Pere Marquette, Chesapeake and Ohio as it relates to the Pere Marquette, Michigan Central Railroads and my own Salt Creek Railroad. I am also interested in the Tuscola and Saginaw Bay Railway, the Great Lakes Central Railroad, CSX, Norfolk Southern, Union Pacific, and BNSF. You are welcome to give me advice.

Ann Arbor Railroad Paint Scheme of the 1960's and 1970's

I found this great photo on line (PHOTO CREDIT: TODD GREENBERG
http://reeb88.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx…) of an Ann Arbor GP35 AA390, and thought I would share it with all of you. I really like this paint scheme. I believe it was used during the 1960's and 1970's by the Ann Arbor Railroad under the control of the Detroit Toledo and Ironton Railroad. It is only missing the compass logo under the cab windows.
