Ever thought about headlight position? The high light GEs CSX has are ex CR Dash8s. All of their ES40DCs have nose lights, not high lights. Also just curious, did RSC put the cab electronics on top of the control stand on the NS ES40DC or not?

NS places their Headlights above the Windshield. That is a repaint that was using what we had back in the day. There is a CSX ES44AC in the Marketplace.

Thats just a repaint of the Kuju ES44AC, also thats not a ES40DC, they just repainted it to show the ES40DC Markings.

Your right. Looks like all NS have there headlights between the number boards. My bad! !!*ok*!! Still doesn't matter for the CSX cause CSX has their Headlights on the nose. I didn't do the repaint so let the author of the NS ES40DC know his mistake.

I think bringing back old threads like this one is a bad idea, and I think that this one has already been released.

I think its time to Lock this thread.
