Excellent post Art, what a striking color scheme. Speaking of your Peabody 994F, it appears that you have a number of liveried 994F's, any chance we could see some of those please? Rowan.

Simply beautiful !!!!!!! Like it a lot when you guys do custom paints like these, you are very couragous to say the least to srtip down a new model and repaint it !!!!
Your mining collection looks very cool, would like to see more pics of it....

Nice work, do you intend to paint a 495 in the original BE blood and custard colours? Or has that been done already?
Regards

Nice 994! So you have a 495 in the old BE colors and the newer standard BE colors used for the model. Now how about the newest color scheme before the Cat purchase?  Also going to need one in Cat yellow. Alex

I Have "12 " 495's , 3 of them are a "working in progress". I hear we will have our P&H 4100 XPC's very soon. A 4100 XPC in the new Peabody colors is a must have !
