This was one unit that escaped me in my earlier modeling days. I threw the old one out and completely re-did this from scratch and this is where I'm at. getting closer. More to come...
I plan to create all the variations for this so that there is a UP, BNSF, Conrail and others.

Great work! I will definitely buy this one as well. Your SD90's are amazing.

P&W has four of these, plus a couple of ex-ATSF 8Ws. If you can work out the cab signaling, I'd certainly be interested in power for the other major freight hauler in the New York-New Haven corridor, an I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one.

Im wanting to see this in either ATSF or BNSF paint. This reminds me of the B40-8's in the Seligman Sub for MSTS by StreamLines.

Is there a SP B39-8/SSW B40-8 coming as well? Those SSW GP60s need something to haul those pig trains with, after all!

Im doing both paint schemes. plus a UP and CSX or NS maybe both. I dont have a csx license so probably need to release that as a bonus repaint.
