Looks like the real thing! Really like the rust streaks coming from the ditch lights. I have a GP-38-2 that is the first diesel I ever painted and decaled myself when I was 12. I was temped to re-paint it... but decided to go your route and make it an old unit that somehow always seems to miss the paintshop.

Sweet weathering job! I think the majority of the tophats that have not been repainted look that bad, if not worse, and you captured it well!

You should try to do a standard can SD70. The 2500's that are still wearing the original EMD paint look like pure crap...rusty and has that white chalky look to them.

I saw the 2548 in Gainesville, GA yesterday... it's looking rough. You can barely see the NS logo on its side, and the roof is gray, red, and brown. That'd be cool to see!
