I had more but they came out kinda blurry because of people bumping into me.

The rest are here, including the Atlas Code 55 bridges.

Hey, that GP15-1 looks like the Conrail version with the 2 low profile exhaust outlets. Didn't Mopac have 4 exhausts with spark arresters on them?  Joe Hueber <lv4142003>

Hells yeah! The only thing that would make it cooler would be actual see-through grilles on the back, but I don't expect that for a $70 locomotive...or anything in N scale with 2 powered trucks, for that matter. Seeing that 15-1 sitting next to the C40 is like seeing 2 huge steps taken towards a credible CR motive power fleet. Props to Atlas, I hope the next a$$ they decide to kick is a SD40-2.
