No such thing as a "DD40B".
This brings back memories of Athearn's HO "DD40" for which there was no prototype either.
Bob
Glad you brought that up. It seems that "somehow", Irv Athearn got a copy of the internal EMD Engineering Department's general arrangement drawing for a "PROPOSED" DDA40 for early design discussions/meetings with UP Mechanical Dept. executives. Without any conformations with EMD Public Relations Dept., Athearn proceeded full speed ahead with THEIR new "DD model"!
Oh well!
