TP&W 401

The Toledo Peoria & Western owned, and operated a pair of ALCo RS11's, 400 & 401. The 400 was severely damaged in an accident, and rather than scrap the locomotive, the 400 was rebuilt into a snowplow. Compared to 400, the 401 lived a charmed life. The 401 had here short hood chopped, and even received the newest paint scheme the TP&W used before the merger with the Santa Fe. While I normally paint a locomotive in it's "as delivered" paint, here is RS11 401 as she appeared just before the Santa Fe merger.
