You know it actually doesn't look that bad. I think the letters should be green though.

Funny, it doesn't look too bad on the side where the speed lettering is facing the right direction... Looks kind of weird when it goes the wrong way.

He's got a lot of nice models though.

I'll second that, it would also probably look better without that line underneath.

I look forward to seeing it on the real thing.

It doesn't look too bad from the side,but on the nose,it looks terrible. The nose needs the Santa Fe cross BNSF logo.

I agree. The new logo seems too modern for the rest of the paint scheme. If they're going to keep the strips down the sides, they should put something on the nose the accents those stripes. I'm really surprised they didn't cut it down to just two colors like CSX did.

The logo kind of grows on you. BUT, they should slant the letters the other way on the engineers side. Plus the nose needs something else, perhaps like esspeefoamer said, put the cross/circle back on the nose.
