Hopefully DTM hasn't forgot the stylish ALCo PA passenger locomotive, Pennsy ran a few of those too.

I've had this discussion with a few of my buddies before and we all kind of came to the conclusion that the reason nobody has spent more time doing those is because it's not the popular modern engines you see in this day and age that the vast majority of people get super excited over. ALCo's were a minority among locomotives and because of that won't be as popular as like another sd40 or GEVO variant.

It would mean a lot to me to see some of the centuries because NY and PA shortlines basically depend on them for everything but until I see otherwise I won't be convinced. !!**sorry**!!

The same with Steam locos. They are probably not as popular as modern electric/diesel locos. I prefer steam as I grew up with them in there later years here in New Zealand. They started to phase them out in the late 1960s. I also belong to UKTS and when an English steam loco is released you don't get as many comments about it as you would a modern-day loco.

For some reason that escapes me these things are way too shiny. I have no idea what light they were looking at but I'm working on a toned down texture already so toy like. Other than that I think this is a pretty nice offering.

Actually, the DTM one could do with a bit more polish. You want to check out the passenger view.

What they need is a heavy weathering. Especially the RF16s that were hauling coal.

Or then again that is a factory fresh image with that initial luster
that would have maybe lasted a month or two even if periodically washed. *!rolleyes!*

If you could find a couple of pictures and post them you might just get your wish.
