You all need to brush-up on your diesel spotting. It clearly lacks flared radiators making it an SD45-2  :P
But it has bloombergs, so it's a GP40X

If N scale had good SD40-2s, C30-7s, U30Cs, SD45s, SD40s, and SW10s; I'd be in N scale.

Wouldn't that be one of the demonstrator GP60s with the rounded nose and cab front?

Also no L-winow like GP49s

Maybe it's a mis-labeled GE on trade-in trucks?

      My favorite locomotive the Alco Aligator (looked fab in Santa Fe Zebra Stripes)has been defiled with wrongo trucks,foob ICG paint job and totaly incorrect number for any type of Alco found on the IC/ICG.Not even worth any collector value as an early N toy/model.                                                   Nate Goodman (Nato).Salt Lake, Utah.

It's not an Alligator - it's a C420. ;)

that is a C-420, not an RSD-15.
