I agree because when I was looking for something to replace my ailing Bachmann and AHM locomotives the Athearn Blue Box was the choice. One hobby shop suggested the Bachmann standard but they had an Athearn GP38-2 for 5-6 bucks more. I'm not disappointed with the performance and robust details. (i.e. strong enought to stand up to the pink sky hook) <br /> <br />Actually I like the Athearn better than two GP30 P2K locomotives. The P2K are stuck on the bad order list until I get over the fact I have to tear down and relube brand new locomotives. <br /> <br />DT
