I agree! I recently picked up a GP20, and it's a very nice unit. I also hope that LL will start making DCC read units. It's one of the major reaons I have stayed out of DCC. If LL makes a comitment to it, so would I.
I have 4 Sd-7's, 2 SW9's and 4 GP20's I really like my GP20's and they are one my favorite locomotives. Here are a few pics
Beauties! As an afficianado of weathering I must say that those are truly done right. I am going to use a LL GP-20 chassis on an Atlas RS-11 body shortly.
Don't count on LL doing the 38's, the body's wrong anyway. Now if they did the F40PH with the new drive, I'd be in HOG HEAVEN!
Hi hermanZgerman, Warren, still fiddling with it. I do have the problem isolated to the nose, and am filing out the inside plastic so that the fit is much looser. Also I think the battery box/steps might be culprits too. I am going to glue the entire shell together and fabricate a connection. I really like the model and now that I got it configured with the right couplers, I will hang in there. After all its only plastic and metal, right????
