The correct locomotive details would be MBTX reporting marks and the locomotive type is HSP46
|
This is the new HSP 46 made by Boise Locomotive. It has a GE Evo Engine inside producing 4600hp and has all new controls. this is actually the sixth engine sent from them.

and the body shop at that! Good god that thing is hideous!

FUGLY!
|
OMG! And we in the UK think Class 70's are ugly! And as for the livery well I can not think of anything good to say about it. It hurts your eyes doesn't it.
|
We have lost our way as a people....

I'm going to go against the flow and say that I like the boldness of it.
|
May be the ugliest engine I have ever seen.
|
The class 70 has nothing on this. I really can't get over this. Both paint and engine design. I mean really, did some guy have his 5 year old draw up plans for this?
|
That is the ugliest diesel ever. It makes an Amtrak P42 look like a work of art.
|
Looks like it is still in the packing crate! Who on earth designed this loco, he wants shooting.
|
Certainly different, that is for sure! I started to say very purple. But the more I look at it, it's more fuchsia. If it wasn't for the black on the lower half of the nose, I'd say that you'd have to be completely blind, suicidal or just stupid to not see this coming and get hit by it.

Give it a break. It's not nearly as ugly as the new Cascades Talgo cab cars.
|
Is the design really that bad, or is it the livery? Some parts still have the masking tape on them!
|
VERY UGLY !!!!! Why they don't make something similar to PA or F units.
|
If you paint it silver with an ATSF red warbonnet, I would applaud.

Agreed.
|
Paint can only do so much, the design of this locomotive is just awful in every sense. The only thing I can give them is that it's nice that the "nose" of the locomotive is pointed. I mean at that point I don't know why they didn't just make it flat...
