Model Railroad News did an article on the U25C some time back.

I see that Rivarossi has recently produced this model in HO scale.  Are the paint colors identical to their U25C model?  I ask that because I seem to recall a lot of complaints about the color of gray used for the U25C.  Am I remembering that correctly? 

The photos I have seen of this U28C model show a one piece windshield, which I understand is only correct for the Phase Ia units (562 & 563).  The Phase Ic units numbered 564-577 had 2 piece windshields.  Also, I'm curious if these models have the correct handrail stanchions and correct trucks for the two different phase units?

Lastly, I haven't seen any reviews of these models yet.  Has anyone operated one of these units and can tell us your opinion as to performance and appearance?
