i saw this guy http://www.bachmanntrains.com/home-usa/products.php?act=viewProd&productId=3012 today, i wonder if ,like teh prototype, it offers more power than the other locos in 2 weeks i'll be in little rock to see the real deal up close and personal.

edit: i forgot someone already started a thread over this.. oh well, now there's 2.

They pull great,but reamember that it needs 22" min curve and they look really bad even on that.

lol i could only imagine. too expensive for me now... but i wouldnt mind having one just to have it. they look so... obscure. just weird.

That is not a bad boy. It is a DCC-Equipped EMD DD40AX Centennial.

I saw a documentary of the beast being moved to a museum some time ago. that is a big bad boy  . I have a n scale version of the beast that i bought after finding it tucked away in the store shelf ( I think it was forgotten and pushed back on the shelf )

i imagine at n-scale its still probably 35 inches long.
