Thanks all..... I like the idea of doing the Milwaukee's too..... I haven't worked out the ditch lights yet - working on that..... Any help with the Amtrak's?.... How many road numbers?

 

The thing with Amtrak Es is that no 2 are going to be the same, so you need to pick your road numbers and stick with it so the details get done right. They're generally numbered in blocks based on who owned them originally, starting with #200. when you get above 400 they start becoming rebuilds of 200 and 300 numbered units and you need to be careful you dont make the same engine twice.  Id be interested in a single A, as Ive got 2 sets of MTH ones already, but it would add a 3rd unit to the rainbow if one bought the cataloged AA set

 

Steve, If you'll take suggestions beyond engines, I'd suggest the FGE "Real Cold" smoking reefer. 

I'll link to PHOTO since I cant post it. 

These were bought from PFE, and were the only Ribbed cars in the FGE fleet. They date to the mid-80s.
