Part of UP heritage. These guys have tried almost everything.

Nice, and almost ready for release it seems.

Most welcome addition to the UP roster. Sherman Hill, here come the Big Blows!

GREAT to see some of the less-common and 2nd-tier transition-era engines lately!

Crossing my fingers for more Alco personally. Would LOVE some DL109s and a more modern RS3 !

Behind the FEF-3 ;)

On a side note, why doesn't it include a set of era appropriate freight vehicles??

This looks pretty cool, nice to see a more unusual loco. I bet it makes quite a racket too in notch 8!

Actually, the GTELs had 20-notch throttle levers - there was so much power available that 8 notches wouldn't have provided good enough control.
