And I thought these new engines couldn’t possibly get any uglier [:O] J.R.

I think they are made for modeling.
Something besides the same old boring paint jobs.

Here are some pictures of AMD-103 HO Scale MODELS of these locomotives.

I must be weird. I think they look pretty cool.

7

The USPS one.

No, that doesn’t make you weird. We all have different tastes, and are each entitled to our own opinions. Even if yours is wrong. LOL.[:D]

I voted no. They say “beauty is in the eye of the beholder”. We’ll, I won’t be holded non of them. Now steam is my locomotive. They are old,slow noisy, blow a lot of smoke and darn good look’in. Thats me in a nut shell!!! [(-D][(-D][(-D]

You are who you are, Loathar. [swg]

Just kidding.

11

I voted a definate NO! If that was the only loco and paint scheme in the universe,I’d think it over [alien].

12

do they come with a can of krylon?

13

I’m in the same boat as you Loathar.

I voted yes, but only if they came in N scale.

14

I would like to see the Toyota one, not the USPS unit. At least the Toyota version was on the Southwest Chief. I don’t think the USPS version ever was on the Chief.

15

Nope. I wouldn’t take those in HO unless you paid me. Then I’d sell them and get some money to buy one in the Phase IV or Acela paint scheme.[:-,] I think the AMD-103s look GREAT in the Phase IV and Acela paint!![:D][:D][:D]

The Toyota one is just a rolling billboard for the Tundra.

I hate Toyotas anyway. I’m a Dodge-type guy.
