Will you do Amtrak Pepsi Can Phase IV and V if possible (with correct prototypical corresponding roadnumbers)?

They look very sharp so far :)

If you look In the post above yours it's pretty obvious he answered your question.

It's a no...but it's a good idea to do the Amtrak Dash-8 since both models are similar. The Dash 8-32BWH will be at home on the Surfliner and Miami routes.

This sounds like a good project for you to learn how to repaint a Loco.

Quick question do the 4 axle units sound the same as the 6 axle units?

They have V12 FDLs unlike the 6-axle models which have V16 FDLs, so there might be a slight difference.

I also happen to notice the missing coupler in the picture above.

[eyein12]

that may be because they dont have the native coupler in the kuju directory.

The GE B40-8 followed the builder's earlier B39-8 and featured the same upgraded carbody design. The only significant difference between the two models was the B40-8's 4,000 horsepower (the locomotive continued to use General Electric's proven 4-cycle, 16-cylinder FDL prime mover). The classification behind the GE B40-8 continued to conform to the company's standard designation for its locomotives. For instance, the "B" regarded its four-axle truck setup (B-B) while the "40" referred to it having 4,000 horsepower. The "8" reference simply meant it was a model of GE's "Dash 8" series.

Dam, I forgot about the B40-8 which has the V16. I was only talking about engines like the B32-8s. I was wrong.
