Description Alright, this is the project I told Ulysses-mk1 I was working on roughly 2 months ago. The reason it took me so long was because (a) I had to start over several times because I kept screwing up SF 53 (Ira), (b) I hit a block because I originally wanted this to be a collage of several drawings (that fell off the face of the Earth), (c) all of my motivation went down the drain when the school year ended (I got really lazy), and (d), I rediscovered the magic of RollerCoaster Tycoon 3.

Sorry everyone!

Well today I got hit by a wave of boredom. As I'm sitting there thinking of what to do, it struck me that I still hadn't finished the drawing I started well over a month ago.

Took me a while, and several frustrating moments, but I did it! I finally finished what I had originally started!
BOY I'M LAZY!

Well it is done. All of the ghost trains and Dean's "Fury" loco met up with me at the Conway rail yard, not too far from here.

ENJOY!

Please don't ask me where I got the names. That's what the engines call themselves.

I do believe that's the first time I've ever seen a tiger shark mouth on either a PA2 or an F9A.

I know. I should have.
But Fury is Β© to Ulysses-mk1, so I didn't want to screw up his face. Basically, I just copied the facial expression on his "Fury Profiles and Expressions" art piece. [link]

Besides, technically they are all smiling in a friendly way.
...........at least that's what I'm hoping (113 is a really cynical character).

Fury looks scariest by dint of looking craziest.

Nice! I just had an idea. Did you know that SD40T-2's and SD45T-2's Tunnel Motors with the long "Snoots" were first refered to as Alligators. As where ALCO RSD-15's.

I knew about the ALCOs, but I never new the "snoots" were also called the alligators. Thanks for the info.
Lately I've had way too much time to daydream and I've gotten a few more ideas for art. Not sure when I'm finally going to put it down on paper though.

LDLAWRENCE In reply to Leadfoot17 [2006-08-07 02:27:55 +0000 UTC]

I hope you put a few of them down on paper!
I had an idea the other day myself. I was think about the two SD40T-2's I have for my freelance model railroad. I was wondering what they would look like with the famouse tiger shark markings of the "Flying Tigers"
