DAIR SD40-2 '3025' (SMH SD40-2 Livery)

TSW3 Only
DAIR is the reporting mark of D&I Railroad which nicknamed as Dakota and Iowa Railraod and also Dale and Irene Railroad, a Class III Railway from the State of Iowa formed in 1985 following the fall of Milwaukee Road.
Apparantly the only part of the line that the company actually own was from Dell Rapids to Sioux Falls. From there DAIR runs over the BNSF's track till Canton where they switch to the Canton---Elk Point line owned by the State of Iowa, also to the Beresford branch line which, again, owned by the State of Iowa.
Despite the locos and the lines having deep relationship to BNSF I somehow choosed the UP as model mainly because it does has interchange with UP and I can't deny that it does looks like UP's livery.
