@robmcc posted:I was happy to see Lionel is offering the CN Heritage/Veterans units. I really was hoping for new ET44AC tooling though. At least Lionel acknowledged the real ones are actually ET44AC units and not ES44ACs as offered. Same with the CP Military units. Like others have mentioned glad they are doing them, but was hoping for a more accurate model. So, I guess the big decision is do I drop $$$ on "close enough"? I passed on the MTH CP units because of that. (Kind of glad I did after seeing 6644!) That said, if I do pull the trigger I'm leaning towards the BC Rail HU, CN Veterans, CP 6644 and CP Heritage with script lettering. Fingers crossed on the camouflage paint....

The CP veteran tribute locomotives look outstanding! I can’t imagine anyone will be disappointed with them if the released models look like the ones cataloged. Both the CP and CN veteran tribute locomotives are the stars of the catalog along with the CAB3 and huge rocket booster train set.
