And now I just ordered my third I did find one more flaw in the SD35's from Atlas. On the short hood end, the light is very dim, even with DCC installed. I did find the reason, and it is beacuse the head light is a good few centimetres back from the actual place where the lights come out. I guess it aint horrable, but I like seeing my trains in the dark better than u can with the SD#%. But still, Atlas did a great job on it Happy Railroading!!
