I have been trying to acquire a CSX AC4400-9W by Kato. I would have preferred to get an original, but they are long discontinued and very hard to find [sigh]. What I want to know is: Does a CSX AC4400 look radically different from any of the ones that are currently available (UP/CN/BNSF/CEFX)? Or would some minor cosmetic surgery (i.e. repositioning the number boards) make it close enough to the real thing? I don't want to have to chop off large sections of the body shell.
