Probably the Tri-ang Transcontinental F unit - to be fair, they never did say exactly what this loco was supposed to be, though it's a fair bet it was supposed to be an F. Unfortunately, it looked nothing like one! <br /> <br />I agree with the comments about the MP F2s - I was very tempted to buy one of these as a project loco until I saw the shape! <br /> <br />Any loco in a paint scheme it shouldn't have - Bachmann high-nose GP50s in UP paint, Life-Like GP38-2s in SF warbonnet, I'm sure there are others out there! I can't see why they do this. I guess they feel they're creating more sales, but in reality they're doing beginners a great disservice by selling them equipment that never existed. It also does their reputation amongst more experienced hobbyists (who know which models to avoid, and will probably not buy the incorrect examples) no good at all.
