B&O / C&O GP40-2

Hey Buzz....or whoever might want to try. How about a B&O or C&O GP40-2? You could use the GP40-2 provided with the Mountain Sub route? I have attached a few photos (not mine). Thanks!

The TBT GP40 would probably be a better fit for these. Neither had GP40-2s, only getting some delivered in Chessie paint with either roads reporting mark (like the unit included in mountain sub).

The spotting differences or so small it's difficult to tell the difference. What makes you suggest the TBT unit?

Just since their model represents a GP40 and the mountain sub one a GP40-2. Really doesn't matter much though, like you said the differences are minor.

I think the Mountain Sub unit represents a better likeness since it has the "rock knocker" plow edge on the pilot.
