Chris, great job on the color scheme. I am glad you explained the reason for the black color because that is not a color I would have chosen. It really looks great with the burgundy and red stripes! I had to look up the history on The Katy to learn it is a real train. I thought your wife's name was Katy and so you put it on the train and T-shirt! Lol!! All the best to you!

Congratulations, Chris. Just want to let you know that I got one of the RBP Katy ES44AC, And I love it. The color is beautiful. I don't have a layout, and this my first Lionel Legacy locomotive. And I don't have a Legacy controller so just set up a oval of fastrack on the floor and ran it with my lionchief app. It is great. Thanks for making my first legacy engine the best one yet.
