[CBQ] Athearn SW1000 - First Ever Late Paint Scheme!

["Tom Mack" <thommack@yahoo.com>]

I was just looking on the Athearn website regarding the new SW1000 and
noticed something very interesting. They are releasing the SW1000 in
two different paint schemes!! Yes, they are doing a model of 9314, the
SW1000 that burned in the Gibson (Omaha) roundhouse fire 2-2-1969. The
unit was fixed, repainted, and released by June 1969 in the Burlington
"Simplified" black/gray with white stripes paint scheme. I believe
this is the first switcher model ever released in the final CB&Q
switcher scheme. (The Athearn product number is ATH95810.)
