I was also looking at the GP38-2, but noticed that it does not have the newer motor and it does not have the DCC ready board. What prompted me to look deeper before purchasing the unit was when I say the standard Athearn lighting in the unit. Which also told me that the unit does not have directional lighting. I was planning on testing one out, but I do not want to have to purchase the parts required to make it DCC ready and also give it directional lighting.
