I guess Caterpillar is a better spelling! Looks like Cat Yellow in a sea of Cat yellow!

Very cool. I bet if Lionel and MTH make that one, they'll sell a gazillion.
Beautiful!
Very attractive colors, also, for a scale model locomotive, which generates happy excitement for operating!

It was trucked from the railyard to the convention center? Seriously, that is some truck. I'd like to see a picture: I googled but could not find any on the internet. Wow!
If MTH releases one, I'm buying!
Many hobby companies are dropping out of the hobby trade shows saying expenses far exceed the benefits they get from attending. I hate to think how much that entire cost of this trade show display is!!!!
An EMD with whiskers! 
When it 'purrs' like a real CAT, then it will have earned it's "tiger stripes". 
All kidding aside, it does look cool!
And if offered by Lionel or MTH, I think I'll sign up!

The EMD locomotive on display traveled thousands of miles to get to Las Vegas; it was moved from a rail spur to the Convention Center in the middle of the night between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. and traveled down Las Vegas Boulevard at five miles per hour.
