    Is the loco on the back of this train, at 1.58 the same as our our class 70?

    Nope - thinks its one of the Vossloh designs that are now appearing throughout Germany and neighbouring countries.

    Don't know for sure what it is, but it isn't GE. They have yet to sell any "class 70" types to anyone other than Frieghtliner, but they'd like to....

    I don't think so. The original artists impressions make it look much less ugly. At the end of the day I think the price was probably the deciding factor though. Aesthetics take a back seat.
