I've been looking forward to picking this locomotive up from The Steam Shack. This is Athearn Genesis's model of Canadian National's SD70-M2 painted in the Grand Trunk Western heritage scheme. CN painted a number of their locomotives in railway schemes that became part of CN as they celebrated their 25th anniversary as a publicly traded company. I picked the GTW locomotive for two reasons. First, it was a scheme that used to run through my hometown as part of the Central Vermont Railway. Second, the Kingston Subdivision, the rail line between Toronto and Montreal was originally part of the Grand Trunk Railway. Athearn did a great job with the locomotive. It looks, runs, and sounds great.
