I first saw one (SD40T-2 snoot?) NB when I was heading SB on 99 (or I-5) to LA, I immediately wanted one. Luckily, Athearn was making an HO one at that time and I got one. I did a few minor detailing upgrades such as the upside-down L-shaped engineer's front window. I still have it and managed much later to get a matching blue-box era SD45 to go with it. Oddly, the only one that I found that was reasonably priced came from the UK! I would not mind having an O scale one even though I do not model SP.
