Be careful: the following is pure sarcasm!
********
I'm really glad it looks as ugly like this... This JS stuff is crap and looks
like crap.
If it has had some "real" windows we probably would have seen a half dozen of
ICEs with that 2 or 3-pieces nose... (maybe even the new train to follow the
4560 would have used such a piece).
I love SNOT front ends made out of lots of small useful parts. As "rumors"
tell, 10020 Santa Fe will be more a Model-Team set and I'm looking forward
to order at least 3(to 5) of them.
But this Jack Stoned stuff is so ugly and (at least in my eyes) so bad -
probably it even won't burn. Fire has his proud too....
Even the new Star Wars sets have lots of JS parts now (for e.g. the new speeder
bikes): I definitely will try to avoid them. The uglier TLC makes Jack Stone -
the easier it is for me to keep my collection clean of that crap. So I
appreciate the appearence of these new sets. They are perfectly made to ignore
them.

single purpose part.)
