Rusty posted a comparison pic a while back of three S scale F unit models.

IMHO, in the "head on" shot, the AM FP7's nose/windows were the closest (in respect to looking "right") of the three models depicted. Granted, the detail level was nowhere near the other models... BUT... it's amazing what some brass wire and detail parts can do! I fully intend to have an AM FP7 on my shelves for eventual conversion into a Frisco FP7.

I didn't see that photo, but I have seen the AM FP7 on several occasions and it is a nice model that can be detailed to make an outstanding locomotive.

In fact, I would consider the AM FP7 to be a landmark locomotive for S scale, comparable to the Atlas RS-3 in HO and N scale.
