Ken, <br /> <br />Yesterday I made a visit to my hobbyshop. I live in the Netherlands in Europe and buy my US stuff across the border in Germany. <br />The BLI SD40 is good. Sound is loud enough and all the extra sounds are fine (like the louvres..awsome!) But the engine sound is incorrect. It sounds like the Proto2000 GP9 I have, and that is a first generation EMD. A SD40 has a second generation EMD engine.....Too bad, but it is as it is. But I still think that the BLI SD40 is a good loco. Oke, the detailling isn't that great, but the overall look is very good. The one I played with in the shop was a UP. <br />Switchers also there; looking fine! Sound isn't very loud (who needs that), but the horn sounds great. Mmm, I think I will buy one......(Btw, sound volume is very easy to adjust, by volume control and by programming)
