Jeff McCrea's Big Blow Turbine

I got extremely lucky on eBay for once. I've been wanting a Big Blow Turbine for some time, however the few I came across were just too expensive. While this one wasn't cheap it was about a third of what most were going for. Attached is a before photo, as always my man Jeff King (Milwaukee Road Train shop) hooked me up. The unit is an OMI model, both A and B units are powered, just straight DC but we are in the process of ordering custom QSI sound decoders. I actually struggled with what paint scheme to go with. Part of me want to go the traditional UP route but as always I really like the fantasy ARR theme as you can tell. For ARR I was actually leaning towards the Blue and Yellow, but Jeff actually talked me out of that.
