Put some weathering on it and it's good to go!

Was this done on purpose?

Looks almost real, definitely add some weathering!!

If that unit hit the truck at speed it would have a lot more nose damage than what we see. It would be crushed.

Actually, thats pretty much correct. Try googling Amtrak collisions and look at images. Our P42's do manage to hold up alot better than most people think....with far superior protection than the F40 ever gave us.
