Kato MRL SD-70ACe
Beautiful locomotive, Kato really did nice work on this unit. I upgraded to DCC already but found the stock DC boards are in there very tight. Had to take a pair of pliers to the back end of the board to get it out. New DCC board went in with no issues so I think it might be a slightly thicker board rather than the frame. Great locomotive, love the MRL blue!
