Finally received my E6 today...bad weather yesterday pushed delivery until today...
Since I have moved to O scale, this is my first NEW engine I have purchased. Everything else has been used...so this was a big deal for me and probably why I didn't buy more than 1. I wanted a B unit, but the SAL Classic didn't run a B unit and was not offered by 3rd Rail. The pictures don't do the color justice. The hint of green is more pronounced in person than in pictures. It is definitely a unique color scheme.
Here are a few pictures of the unboxing and going through some of the DCC functions to light the cab and number boards. Can't wait to get started on my layout now to let this engine stretch her legs some rather than go back and forth on my 9 feet of track on the dining room floor.
Thanks Scott...the wait was definitely worth it!
