Hello community I recently came across this stunning consist but can’t recognize the line. If anyone can identify for me and the manufacturer so I can try to track this down to add to the collection I Willy’s great appreciate it.
Consist in question is at the 6:00 min mark in the video.
Thanks for the help
Sincerely,
Anthony

I would say a MOPAC EMD E7, judging by the rectangular (not round) windows along the side. 🤔 I think that's what you're asking...?

Looks like this 2019 MTH Premier EMD E-8 Passenger Train w/Proto-Sound 3.0 Set: https://mthtrains.com/premier/spotlight/01_2020/b
Edit: @Strummer's comment about the window shapes rules out my MTH suggestion... So maybe 3rd rail?
That's a Sunset 3rd rail GM train of tomorrow E7
Ah yes, the "Train of Tomorrow". Trains magazine did a nice feature story about this back in the early 1980s...(?)

There was a 3rd Rail train of tomorrow set on the auction site recently. Not sure if it is still there.
Thank you all for the info. GG1, may I ask which auction site you are referring to?
Thank you all again and Happy Holiday’s!
