very nice, but in 16 months Kato and BLI could easily scoop these roadnames.

I hope ST fixes the FVM boxcar height problem as there are a mountain of releases in that tooling.

I'd like to see these in the BHP bubbles scheme.  I know BLI offered two numbers in the BHP bubbles scheme and they can still be found.  I got to see over 100 BHP units up close and got a short cab ride in one 5 years ago, so I have a bit of a personal connection to those units as well as over 1000 photos, many of which were close-ups of peeling paint.

I hope they fix the ditch lights. The Fox Valley ones I have the ditch lights are barely visible. Since I run DC, I can’t do anything about them. Also, they have a very slow speed motor so they won’t mu with my Katos.

Hopefully they’ll fix the issues where the cab windows are too small.

Cool to see someone do the blue CN finally. 

Sure wish we could get an sd70m-2 though!

Well, they could not get the correct height on their auto racks so I’m guessing this is not a priority of theirs. Too bad is all I can say.

I'm thinking two or three. I hope MRL will be in the next run.

I’d probably pick up an MRL one just for how cool they are.
