I know it's not as crisp as a factory paint job but thanks to Polly S and Microscale it is finished. Geez, there was a lot of masking on this one!

Art that looks really good
Nice job with the paint and decaling! 
How about a pic of the Reading unit with the Black NS unit behind it? This pair is what I want to run on my layout, although I'll wait until the Lionel engines are issued.

I agree! Great job with the paint and stencilling.
I would rather get the MTH SD-70ACe, as you may wait way too long for Lionel to make or issue this one in Reading Lines. Have been to both MTH and Lionel websites and looks like MTH is planning on making two differant models of this one while Lionel has no model listed in advanced catalog.
I am not trying to knock Lionel but they just don't have a model in their catalog for the Reading Lines heritage unit.

love it!!! This is the part of the hobby I really enjoy.....making a model using your own paint, decals and brains. A +++
Thanks for all the kind words. It was one of the biggest tasks I've taken on in a long time. Here are a few more pictures:
