I thought this was an interesting picture at Railpictures.net but also an interesting remark.

So basically what they've done is gutted the engine of its mechanical parts, replaced it with living quarters, but left the cab so the crew can still operate the train from that unit? That's kinda cool. I'd love to see what the inside looks like

I still have an Athearn GN F45 that I got in a trade from a friend as a kid. Maybe I should take out the drive train and hang a disco ball inside. 
Let's hear it for those carbodies... you can't party inside a hood unit!
