Came across this way-too short album of excellent paintwork.
Excellent photograph also.

Beautiful stuff!
There are some HO modelers who really do phenomenal paint/weathering work.
The painter is Jerry Spoelma who works out of the Original Whistle Stop in Pasadena and has attended some Terrapin meets. He has been painting professionally for decades; I think I first came across his name in the 1970s. In addition to being a superb custom painter he's a very nice guy. And Jim Buckley is some photographer, ain't he? -- Russ
Thanks Chuck. That is some beautiful painting.
My favorite engine SP Cab-forward!!
