Western Maryland BL2 #82

Prototype Locomotive Manufacturer	EMD
Model Manufacturer	Like-Like
Model Run	Proto 2000 : Later Run
Scale	HO
Date Acquired	August 2003 (82) from The Moose Caboose

This is from the later Proto 2000 run, and thereore has better details and a better motor than #81.  The pad printing is better as well, with finer printing.  The tone to the striping and lettering is more orange, like the other WM P2K locomotives as opposed to the bright yellow of the older P2K offering.

Here's the locomotive before any work  was done

More photos coming as the models progress!
