It's a deal killer

Like all of us, I am sure we have probably found at least one item in the new Lionel catalog.  For me, being a Western railroads modeler, it was the Southern Pacific pacific.  But taking a look at it the details killed it for me.  I know the model is generic, but the SP has some defining details.  I can live with most (wrong reverse gear, air tank in the wrong location, etc), but not:

+ marker lights in front of the boiler rather than the sides (that is a UP, not a SP feature which they also

did way back when on the 2-8-0's and which I moved to the sides but never got the lights to work)

+ silvered cylinders

+ grey rather than black paint
