F40PH Question

I've seen a photo of a single Phase 3 F40PH with a mixed consist of Phase 3/4 superliners. It looks as though the Phase 3 paint scheme stayed around on the F40PH for many years, often in a very untidy condition. The consist I saw (was in an article in MR on passenger trains) had 5 superliners and an F40PH, no MHCs or Express Boxcars. Certainly 2 F40PHs with 5 superliners, baggage, MHC and Express Boxcars would be a convincing formation, though I've not seen photographic evidence of this. Personally, I mix and match in a very unprototypical way (Phase 4 and 5 F40PH, Phase 3 MHC, Phase 2 superliners, Phase 5 Express boxcar...). I just like the look of this formation. <br /> <br />As a reply to the first question, I'd recommend the Walthers F40PH. Quiet, smooth, well-detailed and not too expensive.
