    I completely forgot about this one, but I don't remember it ever being resolved...

    On all the places where there should be a GE logo on the AC4400CW, there's just a blank circle. That includes the builder plates, IFDs, and information stickers...
    In real life the info plate looks like this:

    But in TSW you don't see any mention of GE.

    I think it would be pretty unlikely that GE would let their locomotive be in the game, but not their logo. After all, this is fine in TS17, and the locomotive in all the media material is called the GE AC4400CW, not just the AC4400CW.

    It's my understanding that DTG have a license from CSX, which allows them to show CSX property including the locomotives they own and operate. So they don't need a license from GE to show off a CSX owned loco, but they would need one to show off GE logos.

    I could be wrong though.

    Well, not having a GE license would be unfortunate...but if the railroad is the only part they need, the lack of GE logos is pretty insignificant...and there will probably be some mod or something to add in the GE logo.
