I'm glad I don't have any UP equipment to be honest. Though hang on, they bought out the SP and C&NW, I have 3 SP locos, 1 set of SP Impacks, 3 C&NW locos and a set of C&NW commuter bilevels - should I be worried? <br /> <br />On a serious note, how long before track plan books will have to be licensed if they use a prototype plan? Sounds like these people will go after any source of extra profits, so distinctive track plans might be next! <br /> <br />Are UP charging licensing fees for decal sheets too or just decorated models? We had a similar problem over here with the new privatised train operators - they would allow RTR models of their equipment to be made but not decals, as they couldn't control how the decals would be used. GIven that one of the companies concerned had a paint scheme of dark blue with a red stripe, and simple gold lettering in two typefaces, I was amazed that nobody brought out letter decals in gold..."No, we're not making decals for your trains, we're just making letters in gold"!
