My Lionel Santa Fe Warbonnet ABA set didn’t come with engineers. It also doesn’t have any command control so directional lighting is a non-starter currently. On the powered A unit I’ve managed to put in people in the spots, but not optimally due to the motor. It’s kinda blah looking IMHO. For the dummy A unit I bought a F3 interior cab for the MTH version, did some nip/tucks to it to get it to fit, added engineers, and LEDs throughout, and it looks great. I plan on putting the dummy A in the lead. Other than having to always change direction when I start up and after a pause, will there be any operational issues when running the powered unit behind 2 dummy units?

Post some photos of the dummy A unit. I'd love to see the mods and lighting!
