Roco also made the earlier Atlas and Con-Cor GP38, GP40 and SD35, and the more recent Atlas metal-bodied S2's and S4's. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />The Atlas S-2s and 4's on the yellow boxes were from Roco, stamped Atlas, Made in Austria, The "classic" S2s and 4s (black box) clearly say China on the bottom of the fuel tanks. That being said, I have disassembled both, and other than the wording of the fuel tank, can find no appreciable difference. <br />
