A close up view of one of last year's purchases, the Auscision Models AC class as operated by Australian Railroad Group in yellow and maroon colours.
Since these locos were purchased ARG became part of Aurizon the new name for QR National, and this livery was superseded.
I quite like this livery but due to other priorities I have recently sold this model.
