    NICE! Wonder if I could swap that chassis under a scAmtrak shell from the first run? Time to go shopping in the bargain basements!

    Still no Amtrak California, the first scheme these locos ever wore...

    Pardon my grumpiness.

    You have every right, Ben.... I'm kinda cheesed off about it too; I see those units roll by daily, I live in Berkeley and I like to railfan trackside at Jack London square, where you can (if so inclined) slap an F59 in the ass as it rolls by! I work in SF and the F line brightens up many of my days.... but no Bachmann trolleys for me, NO sir! HAHA

    Pretty stoked to finally have a locomotive for my Railrunner train! I like now how the 3pk of cars is all coaches now. Now if only they could do a run of West Coast Express next!
