On a happier note,
The SDP40F's with sound are in at MBK:
http://www.modeltrainstuff.com/N-Scale-EMD-SDP40F-Locomotives-s/3880.htmI do want to note Kato seems to have made huge run of these or something, because MBK has been getting restocked on both the DC and DCC equipped versions. It makes it easier to spread out the pain on the wallet, seeing as I'm sure folks who have the full El Capitan/Southwest Limited set will want 3 in each paint scheme to pull their 18 car consist...I know I'd like to...
Now we just need Kato to run F40PH's in phase 2 paint and another run of F40PH's in phase 3 paint with numbers in the low 300's and you could model just about any consist Amtrak could put together in the mid 70's to the very early 80's.
