Bob, the angle of the shot hides the fact that the hood doesn't taper down. It is a pretty deceptive angle. Any other angle and it is really visible.
Frank, you nailed it. Soo Line red with a little tint. Some weathering on the horizontal surfaces too. Brian really nails the Lehigh Valley scenery. He is working on a module of Hetchel right now which is incredible. Gotta love the Valley.
Oh yeah, those XIH boxcars are really cool. I need a few more based on what I saw in person.
