F40PH Metra 159 "Village of Mount Prospect"

Description
Excellent model by G5K - reUVd and detailed for Metra service by Micro

I used to live in Mount Prospect, so I had to do #159

If you want to make your own liveries I recommend using Metra 157 instead of this unit, since this detailing is Metra-specific: Quad nose lights, headlight above cab, roof AC unit, side mirrors, 3x MU plugs, nose hatches, and whatever that little cutout is on the front of the nose itself.

I did a touch of exhaust weathering on the roof as well, which goes in both directions since these units run backwards half of the time!

The map is another group project, modeling Blue Island IL; it won't be complete for a long time yet.

As for liveries, I only have 1 more planned, but everyone is welcome to make their own! I suggest using Metra 157 instead of this model, unless you specifically want to model the Metra, like it says in the description.

Also i used to live in blue island, it was nuts. All the gang activity, the creepy abandoned stuff, etc. I lived near train tracks, in fact. One of the reason my mom moved us up to the north was because there was a junction in front of our house, and they started hauling tankers past our house.

Could you perhaps make a lightning bolt scheme for it?

SO MUCH YES
