Rio Grande made it's name hauling coal and short fast freights averaging 30 - 40 cars are so.  Saturday, I had my Proto2000 SD50, KATO SD45 and Proto2000 SD60 hauling my general merch train.  

I haven't decided on what to do with the CNW unit, either patch it, or do with it like I did my Rio Grande's and SP units and just stick the UP shield below the cab.  UP actually got rid of all the CNW SD60s but this one I got at a show, with the decoder installed for $40, so I couldn't let it go.  

Anyway, if it's SD50/60s you're after, go the extra mile and get the Proto's, they put the Athearn's to shame.
