JointedRail stuff [screenshots/renders]

Absolutely believable. NS short on power so they took a dash 2 cab and stuck a widecab nose on it to pass regulations as lead unit....most probably I guess.
 
Had too much time on my hands...

The C&NW one is an SD80MAC, the paint and the bulge in the back give it away.
You would find it hard to tell the difference if you don't know that as they all look mostly identical.@OthersThanks for the info on the NS GP38-2. I prefer the short hood as it to me looks safer with the cab near the "front" of the train.

Fictional Russia Iron Boiler Jacket on the earlier prewar version of the SP SP-1 4-10-2.

This was done using the tbumpenv material, so it actually reflects the current sky. It isn't quite done yet, the rods still need to be polished, and the wheels and tender need to be cleaned and painted.

As you can also see, there are a few differences on the early version. A different pilot, larger headlight, different class lights, different bell, original spoked main driver, cylinder caps, and a smoke deflector. The smoke deflector does actually function too. Besides this fictional paint scheme there will be a few prototypical paint schemes. A green boiler jacket paint scheme, with white walls and stars on the drivers, rods all polished up and ready to haul your premier passenger trains. There will also be a clean shiny black version and a weathered black version.

Oh... My... God... It's beautiful! Will they be offered in a pack? I don't always get SP content, but when I do, it's going to be one of lilb's steam locomotives!

how about a white smoke box, white rods, and white walls?

Yes, they will be offered in a pack/packs.

That's the Postwar version of the locomotive, for right now I am focusing on the Prewar version. I do plan on doing more paint schemes on the Postwar version later though.

That SD70ACeB would look good pushing coal trains! To my completely untrained eye I see a low headlight and a new grill on the side of the center one. edit* Ahh I see now, isolated cab as well.

I love that SD70ACEB! I have never really seen the practical point of B units. Why not buy cab units and then have more single units to use?

Yes this is the often requested low headlight BNSF 70AC. The one on the far right will replace the current JR BNSF ACe.

Which is probably why you do not see them anymore. There would have to be some specific requirements usually. Last ones requiring them were ATSF and BN, so I figured if there was a real SD70ACB it would be for BNSF. I just thought this was too cool to pass up.
