I'm pretty stoked today, I finally got a UPP 2066 power car for the heritage fleet. This guy named Harry is doing custom orders and so I bought one from him. Thoughts?   |

Is it a modified brass car or Walthers?
It looks okay.

I noticed someone on TrainOrders re-decalled the flag on that engine to get rid of the vertical white line that runs through the blue starred area top to bottom.

Certainly an eye-catching model, although I am not really familiar with the prototype (the one time I saw a UP business train, it was using a genset locomotive for HEP). Looking at some prototype photos, it looks pretty accurate over all, though seems like it could use more underframe detail. The vents also jump out at me, looks like they're painted black on the model but looks gray on the prototype.
Does it have sound? Seems like a perfect application for the Tsunami Soundcar.

No sound but thinking of adding it. |

Some of the engines have less of a white line than others. I saw a youtube video of a very bad version. Mine is fortunately not very pronounced. Thank you |
