Legacy E6 Penn Atlantic Showed Up Today

RickM46OGR Forum Member SUPPORTING MEMBER

The 460 showed up today from Charles Ro. Asked them to double box it and they did a first rate job - see pics. No damage at all.

The E6 runs fine and has a nice crawl speed. Been running it for about an hour with no issues. No blemishes on the finish and all legacy functions work; nice whistle; stack and whistle smoke OK. Happy Camper.

Just some tidbits: the marker lights at the top of the boiler do not light up; and, as reported in other posts, the loco is a bit back heavy.

UPDATE 1/17/19: the loco is a bit back heavy until you connect it to the tender; that stabilizes it very well. Also removed my post about the factory making a quick change to the boiler marker lights - nope, the lights are right as they are on my loco thanks to Scott's info.
