Since I have not seen anybody post on these, so:

Walthers released GP9 Phase I in the Blackbird scheme last month. They are the same quality as the recent Walthers Proto GP7s which I believe is excellent. Walthers is now out of stock on these, but I saw a couple for sale at a local hobby shop on Thursday. I've run my set to get them broken in. They run very smoothly. Using the Loksound programmer, I was able to change the horn to a dual Leslie A200 to match the dual horns on the locomotive.

ScaleTrains announce last week GP30s in the delivery scheme (EMD produced April-June 1962). They are planning to have six different numbers available in both LokSound/DCC and DC. You can see more on the CB&Q GP30 page on their website:
