    Need help with a Proto 2000 loco quick!

    Well I am watching a BN GP20 on eBay that is labeled as a Athearn SD9 but I PM'd the guy and he said it is actually the loco in the photo which is a Proto 2000 GP20 from what it appears. The model has horn hook couplers though which makes me think its a older model. Question is, how much...

    Athearn cab interiors?
