ALCO,

Yup, that is the one. Not pretty but it got the job done. Did you build that digital model? (Funny thing is that I have seen E70 but I did not know about the critter being in Deer Lodge as well. Then again I was going off the book I had and well... E70 had moved from the courthouse lawn down next to the old jail. But I luckily managed to find it.)

Yes, I saw your post and followed the link and thought I could build that guy pretty quickly. I've got it in LDD and can send you the file if you'd like. It took me maybe an hour maybe a little more to throw that together. Since the real thing runs on an extension cord, there is a hole under the door in the back for the "extension cord" to the PF train motor. I think it's a cute little bugger to be honest, and my first MOC of an electric locomotive too.

Matisa BNRI 85 Tamping Machine. I've found this rail maintenance vehicle very interesting and I've made a MOC - not a replica - inspired by it.
