I am more excited about C36-7 than SD60F

Aurora posted pics on their FB page. They are on the way to Canada, and should be in stores by January

Did someone already start a thread on that Gunderson 6276 cf 50' Plate F boxcar? Holy cow, lots of nice details to like in those photos!

Aurora also commented that they are in the process of tooling an SD50F, too, and to expect an announcement next year.

I'm not familiar enough with them to know the minute differences, but other than the number boards and class lights, I'm not aware of any major ones. Guessing maybe some slightly different car body differences?

I think there were differences in roof details between the SD50F and the SD60F.

Guessing maybe some slightly different car body differences? Off the top of my head, numberboards, class lights, rear sand filler hatches, radiator fan hatch, engine roof hatch. And engine of course (50-series 645 vs 70-series 710). Note in the SD60F group there were three "SD50AF" units (9900-9902, renumbered 5500-5502) that are basically SD50F bodies with 60-series internals.
