GM GP30
While driving on Alcoa Hwy, I saw a train running parallel for the highway for a short distance. The engine was a General Motors GP30 Diesel Electric made in the early 1960's. A number of these 2nd generation diesel, engines are still running with smaller railroads. Much like the one marked with the CSX line logo I saw.
USA Trains makes an award winning model of this locomotive. Recently Large Scale On-Line (lsol.com) offered a half price deal on them. One marked with the CSX logo. So in my effort to model the trains here in the Smokey Mountains, I ordered one. Let me tell you, I am impressed. You have t add some small parts that come in the box. But once yo do, you have one seriously detailed model.
