Thank you all so much for your patience.

this was made by sis skitta shay on youtube not by me

Found this video clip on a 100" QLED Tv at a Sam's Club in Niagara Falls, NY. America never did the red accents and red striping on steam Locomotives, and the passenger cars are old German stock with buffer beams and European screw couplers, despite the engine clearly having American type couplers. Also the tracks have no ballast and would likely sink into the marsh with all that weight.

Also, I have added another paintscheme to the list, so the total when finished will now be 17 instead of 16.

These are all the Amtrak TGVs I have done so far (Day 1, Phase 1, GG1, Phase 2, Phase 3, Phase 3 Pepsican, Phase 4, and Phase 5). These are half of my planned 16, and also the most I could fit on a Google slide. (so the final collection will have to be 2 pages) Thank you for your continued support of my "creative expression."

I swear the next one won't reuse the Phase 4 cars again. Also, am I the only one that thinks the tops and fronts of the power cars are kinda giving Canadian National for some reason?

Made this because what i have ever created
