Very nice, it’s all in the large format 4096x4096 and all of the bits and pieces are pretty easily findable. You might notice that my paint has a plow which the majority of Seaboard locomotives did not have but it would need a change of the Geo to get rid of it so until they come out with low front headlight or the four headlight version without a plow it’s a good placeholder.
In any event no Mickey Mouse reflective stuff or other mystery unfindable parts. It follows the idea of the E8 in its simplicities.

Always thought this paint scheme fitted the GP very well:

Plain, simple, but flashy.

Edit: Uh oh, it is a non dynamic brake unit, and we don't have those. Scratch it.

A BNSF repaint wouldn't look bad on the CSX unit. I'm busy working on another repaint right now, so if someone feels like giving it a shot, go right ahead.
