The 81 engines are prone to E unit failure and 2 of the 3 of them had to be redone. They look like Gilbert's but are not. The E Unit was built so it used separate coils of wires in the field to change direction. No current E Unit can perform this action and Lionel hasn't had originals for years. If you go to Port Lines Hobbies website and look at his repair clinics you will find one I did for the S Gaugian and him on this repair.
Many, many moons ago (1993) I had the reversing unit circuit board fail in my L-AF B&O PA set (purchased brand new 12 years after it was built here in the USA).

WOT??? According to the guys on the 3-rail side, made in the USA trains are infallible...
