SAL E6's

[chessie]

Did SAL roster any E6B's? I just had to have a set of the E6's (N Scale) that LifeLike just produced in the Citrus scheme (and actually picked up both "sets" at a good price). However, upon reading up on them, it appears SAL only had very few E6A's and NO E6B's. Is this correct? I have seen photos of the E6A's with citrus B units, but must conclude that they were E4B's.

Any thoughts?

The Railroad Magazine Roster lists 5 E4Bs for SAL. Roadnumbers 3100-3104. There were no E6Bs rostered.

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>There were NO SAL E6B's. The E4B were virtually identical to the E6Bs though. So, if you are interested in having B units use the LL B unit with a E4B road number. This is what LL did with their decorated units and it works fine as far as I am concerned.

Thanks for the info... I actually plan to swap the LL chassis for Kato chassis (DCC ready too!), but that is a topic for the N Scale Forum http://www.trainboard.com/wink.gif
