EMD G16 - PNWR 1501

Description
This is a livery of PNWR 1501 applied on an EMD G16.

Background -

PNWR (now BUGX) 1501 is an SD7R built originally for the southern pacific in 1952. It enjoyed a long carrier on the SP as a bog standard SD7 until sometime between 1979 - 1980 when it was put through SPs rebuild program and reclassified as an SD7R. (R being rebuild). It would go onto serve as a roseville yard switcher until it was acquired by Portland & Western (PWNR) in the early 2000s after being refurbished by Lavacot Locomotive works. It served as the Albany yard switcher for PNWR until 2023 when the EPA mandated its scrapping. A deal was reached with the EPA and its new buyer, Diesel Motive Inc (BUGX) for it to be "saved," and it was bought shortly after. It now rots away in the oklahoma sun likely to never run again. F uck you mccan.

The G16 was a locomotive produced by Electro Motive Diesel/General Motors Diesel, as well as MACOSA & Clyde Engineering under license in Spain and Australia respectively. 426 total were produced between 1958 - 1972 for roads in Brazil, Egypt, Mexico, & various western balkan countries just to name a few. The G16 is mainly operated now by a few roads in Brazil, Serbian Railways in Serbia, and Trainkos in Kosovo.

The fan on the roof is green, not the blue-ish color like it should be. This is an RL issue and will be fixed when I get around to it. This is also not supplied with proper 1501 sounds mainly because Im too lazy to do it and I dont think people will actually use this anyway. This I made purely because clements said I should make a G16 livery, lol

(((((((( Press SHIFT + 3 on the locomotive for knuckle couplers ))))))))

Credits -

Clements: for the base G16 model and tips when making this
Limp Bizkit & Pendulum: for keeping me sane while I made this
Myself: for spending 3-4 hours on this, because only god knows why
