Coming very soon, in the next few days, will be our newest models for your enjoyment! We will be offering the GE ES44AC and ES44DC in several railroad paint schemes! Shown here in BNSF Heritage 3, all will come with complete decal sets. If there is a specific railroad you want to see instructions for in this model let us know and we will see what we can do, CSX and Norfolk Southern are ready to go already.
