If you can believe catalog art.... four Union Pacific SD70AH engines (8937, 9069, 9088, 9096) each with the headlight in the wrong position.  Also, I believe that those 3, 9000 series engines are in real life Tier4.  

Does that mean they have the different style can from a normal 70ace? And do they have nose mount headlight or cab mount?

Actually, after looking more carefully, I think in real life the three 9000 series engines Lionel is offering are not Tier 4.  The UP Tier 4 engines look like they have 3 fan grills instead of just 2.  rrpicturearchives.net  lists them as 4TC.  I guess that means they are Tier4 Credit engines, not Tier 4 engines.  However, the actual pictures of 8937, 9069, 9088, and 9096 show headlights in the nose.  Maybe the catalog art is just not accurate.

I would love to pick up one of the 4-6-6T’s, but at $1100, I could pick up a big steam loco. What happened to the $700-$800 price tag on smaller stuff?

They need to charge the big bucks in order to pay for repairing all of the stuff that wasn't done right the first time!

I can wait until the catalog comes out just so I don't have to look at all of these cheap no quality photos so many are posting!
