Any Route, Any Road, Any Era - 2022

SOO textures hurriedly applied to the MILW pack SD40-2 as a proof of concept. Just a bit of texture and shape file tweaking left here and there to create SOO painted 6300's. Later in life, SOO added dynamics to 21 SD40-2s 785-789, 6601-6604, 6606-6617 (6600 and 6605 wrecked prior, 6617 only unit with step traction motor blower). But these retros used extended range dynos with the wider blister pack.

Hmm, like KCS( mostly with DeM Units ) & each Railroad doing Their Own Versions of updating 645TEs on SD40-2s & GPs with 710-Ts, would SD40-2Ms be able to re-reach Their Old Might( The Ex-45 Varities ) re-get The Power back They once had with extra fuel Cost by adding a Newer J-10-12 found on ACe T4s?
