As one who has several GP38s and GP40s from Atlas/Roco, I'm happy to see the newer, more detailed versions. Atlas has REALLY stepped things up since the late 1970s!
YES!!!! Bring on those hi-hood SD35s Thank you Atlas. Now, I will have some decent power to lug my coal trains.

(breathing a sign of relief!) </font>
