And that market is the N Trak roundy round Xmas train crew!!!

I kid, there will be plenty of these on UP early 90's layouts.

I'd be tempted if ScaleTrains was doing it.

You're not wrong.

I just wish they'd pay attention to things like phase differences. I've spent far too long looking at things like anticlimbers and grill styles on EMD units to not notice when they're wrong (on prototypes I know about, anyway).

Funny you say that. I've never been good at identifying diesels...at least the SD series. Or the later GPs. They kind of all look the same to me. But steam? Can totally spot silly little things like the bore size of a single-phase air compressor or the number of tubes in a pilot or the arrangement of the sand pipes on the boiler.

I'm at the point in my modeling journey where there's little that I "need." But I am still buying special paint schemes. I'll definitely get one of these. BLI definitely has their finger on my pulse. They always have special paint schemes.
