No Q, DD-40! Ha! They wouldn't have painted them in the wrong colors! I
know, I road in one in Wyoming. They used them in the coal fields out
there. You probably don't believe all the people that rode in a UFO either.
I'll bet you're going to tell me next that the Burlington Red, White and
gray
F-units and passenger cars that Athearn made weren't real. I know for a
fact they were used
on the Midnight Zephyrs. No photographs exist since they only ran at night.
I also have a Con-Cor gas turbine in the BN green scheme. I just wish they
would
run it in the original Q red and gray.
John Lewis if that is his real name is probably some sort of NMRA undercover
agent trying to keep this under wraps while he works on Q DD-40 article for
the April Fools issue of Trains.
All in fun!
