MTH did an SD70ACe in Caterpillar livery. Anyone know how that turned out?

Except it's in the MTH "Cat Fantasy" paint scheme, not the prototype paint and the reviewer should invest in a tripod.

I wonder why a mfr would not use the paint scheme that was already being used?? I like the real prototype so much more.

I'm gonna guess the MTH version was cataloged (2102 V1) and maybe already in the production phase when the prototype CAT chooch appeared.(Sept. 2012)

that train belongs to Bob I from the NJHR club. the loads are outstanding
I wrote to mth earlier this year to let them know that if they made a set in the proper demonstrator colors and had heavy equipment like the train that CAT sent to the mining expo that I would definitely buy it. The demo train even had a Caboose!!
I think they look nice,A member of our club has 2 powered and a dummy. I think he also has all the Cat rolling stock. Several of each one. Nice train that people like when he brings it to shows.
