Umm, you know those were the ex-RDG units. There were only a few of them, and having more than one in New England at any time would be pretty rare.

And they're missing the RDG rain gutters.

Just a little reality check...

Hopefully though, they'll do the later phases for you. Ones with the bug eye class lamps, the anticlimbers, etc... I believe they were the pinnacle of GP development.

Yeah.

But having one around would be cool.

Especially when Atlas later does the later ones (I'm guessing they will). This way there will be that ONE oddball unit.

And those ex-RDG units were really cool.

Yeah. I can add it to my mix of odd ball 38-2s as well.

The later phases will rule.
