    Looks like proto has fixed the seam issue on the front cab that looks so bad in the UP photo below. On the BN version it looks like they have rectified the problem. Now if the price comes down one will eventually work it's way into my collection of BN/BNSF power.! [​IMG] [​IMG]

    It does look better...

    This is from the AAT site right?

    I hope that the paint scheme they show on the SOO one is just due to lighting conditions, they messed up the paint job on the standard cab SD60 for SOO as well (Rob will be getting annoyed!)...and interestingly you can see the seam on that one, though it's not anywhere near as bad as the UP early pre production pic.

    Life Like has a bad track record with Soo paint. Kato has the 'candy apple red' perfect on the CP SD90s... We'll see what they look like in person.
