I realized my ILLINOIS CENTRAL set in 2005 is freelanced. That means I can make my own changes. If my Athearn that I paint and decal turns out good I'll have to add some modern IC diesel. I was thinking maybe this http://www.atlasrr.com/HOLoco/hodash840c1.htm , get an undecorated one and paint it IC death star. But it may be easier to get an NS one and just paint over the NS decals.(but then the paint would have to match perfectly) the NS would be quite easy to transform to IC- just paint over the logo on the sides, front , and back, put on some DEATH STAR decals and you're done. Seeing the UTAH BELT layout in Great Model Railroads 2006 has inspired me to freelance IC. I'm going to do a lot of thinking over the next few days- IC may become the main RR on my layout with just run-through's from BNSF (now it's the opposite)
