This past Thursday, my pre-ordered SDP40F from Athearn's second release came in at my local hobby store. Since this is the earlier version of the SDP40F (the original release was the later model), I made a quick review of the locomotive, comparing it to the previous release, and then put them both on a train of all 11 of my Amtrak Heritage Fleet passenger cars for a trip around the layout. Enjoy!

They look really nice. I'm waiting for the 4th release, not yet announced, for the San Francisco Zephyr version with the ice breakers on the roof. Here I've waited for almost 40 years for those, guess I can wait a couple more.

Beautiful job, Athearn .
Really cool seeing the contrasting differences between the two models on the video.

Actually, I'm in the process of trying to get my site back up and hosted on Go Daddy. The original hosting site had a hiccup a while back and went down, taking my site with it. Thankfully, everything is backed up and recovered. Just trying to get both chatanuga.org and klw-art.com up on the same account.
Both links give me a blank white page. I use Fire Fox, lastest version. ?
