@Mike W. posted:Would be nice to build an E60 set with a mix of Heritage coaches like the 3rd rail Slumber-coach...and Amfleet. I know we have stationsounds passenger cars from Lionel but I wish the sounds could mimic the common screeching brakes that the heritage equipment had. Wasn't the Phase II scheme still well represented into the 90's?
By the 90's there wasn't a lot if any Phase II painted equipment left. Phase II was fairly short lived from about 1976 to 1981 when Phase III was introduced. That lasted up to just after the turn of the century.
However, many E60's stayed in phase II paint up through the mid 80's prior to rebuilds into E60MAs.
My plan is to put together a mixed Heritage fleet train as well. Finding much that is to scale in phase III is difficult. I'm probably going to repaint some items personally.
