Which of the ho scale kato sd40-2 mid locos have the fuel tank milled for sound?  (Model numbers ?)  It appears that not all of them are.

Thx,

Mark

Mark,

The only ones that I can confirm at this time are the current run release ones (as evidenced by Cody's office video).  Next time I visit my LHS, I'll ask to take a look at one of his new-old stock mid production SD40-2s (I'm pretty sure he still has them).

I have the current one, and yes it is milled out, and has a baffle. 

The second most recent run was also milled out.

These are the opinions of an under 35 , from the east end of, and modeling, the same section of the Wheeling and Lake Erie railway.  As well as a freelanced road (Austinville and Dynamite City railroad).
