Does Athearn or someone else cheap make ANY E units? I know BLI but who want’s to buy a 300 dollar engine and then dirty it up really bad? Id rather have an Athearn Blue Box to do that to! I need some E units for a possible first Amtrak train on my new layout. Thanks, also looking for E units of early Amtrak or ANY other roads. Thanks Ben
could always just buy a shell, I think you can get them pretty cheaply nowadays.
Get some of the P2K ones. Look on their web site to see what they have made. They have made a slew of them and they run very well and look great doing it. Then look on the bay if you want an older release.
Rivarossi, Con-Cor and some others I think made E’s some time ago, but the ones I have seen didn’t run that great back then; who knows about now.
I have a new E7 A&B set in undocorated I am going to sell as soon as I get the pics done (soon as I got them I came across two painted A units and laziness got the best of me).
