Anyone else think those humps on the back make them look weird?

it ain't weird if it streamlines the train behind. :)

Yes Mr. Skeet, I do.

Just look at those beautiful Chargers.

The Ford Escort had a small bump like that on the rear of the roof and it was done to lower the fuel consumption. As it was done after a lot of wind tunnel testing, I assume it worked.

We are living in an era, where Freight Locomotives ES44AC's or SD70Mac's, are much better looking than Passenger Locomotives. Looks like an European invasion. For looks, these can't be compared to PA's, E Units or F Units. It's truly sad. Like comparing a Two Or Three to a Nine or Ten.

While it may streamline the train, they didn't do it on the Midwest chargers. The Pere Marquette always has supers now and chargers. Can't streamline that much.
