I have a $25 visa gift card to use anywhere and I wanted to buy some of eyein12's content, so I wanted to know what to buy.
What I had in mind:
EMD SD60
or EMD SD80/90
Or does he ever have sales from time to time?

No sales and the 80-90 is a nice piece of work for sure.

Well even though Eyein's SD80/90MAC's are my favorite, I'd say the SD60 because:

1. More locos/rolling stock for your fleets.

2. The******** has a freeware PR30C, so that will be another free thing you can get. But the $ means it's coming right? *!!wink!!*

They are both great locos. The SD80/9043MAC is a much newer model, and has a more detailed cab. The trinity and ortner hoppers that come with it are well done too.

Eyein is in the middle of revamping the SD60 though, looks great!

Yes the trinity hopper is what sticks out most to me because I see those all the time in Frankfort.

And I do think that the sd80/90macs look better, but someone did mention he is updating the sd60.
