How is the new Intermountain SD40T-2 ?

[Anonymous]

Hello from France !

I'm a espee railfan in love with tunnel motors !
As far as I've seen some pictures on Internet of the new snoot nose SD40T-2, I'm not really enthusiastic. I'm looking for any comment before ordering the coming models, especially short nose.

Can anyone who has bought one of this new model tell me about it ?
Is the paint job nice and not too shiny ? How are the handrails ? Are the rear bottom grids see through ? The photos I've seen weren't that relevant...

Thanks for your attention and your help.
