PC: U30B's



Group:  This is to provide a potentially juicy Christmas present to all PC and NYC fans. 
 
We are currently working with Rail Tours Inc (Jim Thorpe, PA) to paint their recently acquired U30B to it's as-delivered NYC paint scheme.  We will leave it in that livery for a month or so.  It will then wear the FULL Penn Central paint scheme for a couple of months before finally being painted into a L&NE inspired corporate scheme.  The painting will be done through the newly formed group "Northeast Railroads Historical Society, INC" ( a non-profit historical society).  We will be soliciting donations to assist with the restoration.  Anyone interested in contributing funds or time may contact me off-list at kgjr1554@earthlink.net for more info.  I will forward all requests to the president of the society.  We are still developing various donation levels with appropriate rewards.
