Ralph, thanks for sharing the photos...and good luck with your new engine! I pre-ordered a pair of the CNJ’s from one of the Forum sponsors and was just notified today that they are on their way. I have big detailing/weathering plans for them when I can find the time. I may even swap out the headlights to the prototypical dual version that SIRT mentioned.
Curt, I also purchased the D&H RS3 (a pair in fact) earlier this year, and have plans to detail them as well. I love the ALCo sounds like you do, even if they are “generic”...and now that the PS3 versions have smoke units, all the better!
I already owned the older D&H PS2 version (no smoke unit) and noticed on the latest run that MTH upgraded the truck side frames with more detail. I can’t tell from Ralph’s photos if this upgrade applies to the RSD’s. MTH has been doing quite a few of these product detail upgrades on their engines and Premier rolling stock over the past several years with very little fanfare or public announcement. I think that’s great!
