3D scanned from an ex-CSX B36-7 for 100% accurate shape and dimensions
Incredible underframe detail including piping and a ridiculous number of separately-applied parts
Full cab interior, with correct orientation for standard or Southern locomotives
Dead straight metal side handrails with plastic stanchions
A crazy level of road-specific detail options, with different pilots, anticlimbers, plows, fuel tanks, air dryers, antennas, bell location, wind deflectors, headlight locations, air-conditioning units, beacons, different bodies, multiple nose and rear end styles, three versions of drop step, and so on.

Conrail locomotives have unique ‘built out’ style class lights
ATSF, Conrail and Southern locomotives have single or double baffles appropriate to era and road number
Three styles of operating, flashing ditch lights, front and rear (as appropriate)
Working headlights in correct location, switchable number boads at both ends and cab interior headlight
