The second release features the GE modified "angled exhaust" version for all roads except Navajo Mine Railroad which received the "square exhaust" for their two units.
The third release features units of mixed types of exhaust hatches. The CN-Veterans #3015, CN-EJ&E, and CN-Wisconsin Central have square exhaust. All others in the third release have angled exhaust.
As more railroads purchase these and take delivery, Intermountain will make subsequent product announcements.
