Well if you want to get picky neither one is correct. Not the best picture but show that a lot of light get threw. I guess this would only bother someone that runs there trains at eye level.

You probably think I'm some mole from FVM trying to ruin BLI's reputation, but here's a pic of the FVM loco with a white background:

Nah, just pointing out that lighting is important when comparing.

Thanks!

All I'll say is this: If you want an ES44 with sound, then get the Broadway Limited.
If you want the best-looking ES44, get the Fox Valley version.

The radiator wing is a separate part and can be knocked loose. You actually have to remove the section to take the shell off.

The Fox Valley GEVO also has a removable radiator wing (to access the DCC decoder plug). However, it's impossible to orient it wrong unless it's not actually on.
