If you dont release it, without making know it to his autor before, it's all Ok. Too bad that these locomotives are now only a piece of museum, they belong to the past, the good one. BTW good reskin, i like the Blue scheme

Nice screens, just one little advice, in Romania, the electric locomotives run only with the rear pantograph raised. Sometimes in the winter , if there is ice on the wires , they run with both pantographs raised, the front one to remove the ice so the rear one can make perfect contact on the wire. Sometimes, also in winter, you can see them with the front pantograph raised.
Here is an example of a locomotive running with the front pantograph raised http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=Ge5p0yfZxXE#t=153
The reason why they run only with the rear one raised is that if they accidentally meet an obstacle and they damage the front pantograph, due to the speed this can go also over the rear one, so the locomotive would be immobilized. If the rear one "hooks" some obstacle, at least the front one will be functional and the locomotive can be powered.

Later edit: Here is a rare movie of a locomotive running with both pantogrpahs because of the "freezing rain" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBgq7i49xB0
