Reply to "Sunset second run E7 suggested fix"

The first run arrived in late 2011 and the second run followed closely sometime near the end of spring 2012. It was a while ago, but I do recall some modifications as a result of the 1st run units. I'm not the expert on the design changes, but I will have to get mine out and look at the differences. I'm just the research and graphics guy ... I usually don't involved in the engineering side of things.

After the E7s, 3rd Rail did the FL9 and they run extremely well. My FP7s are 2 rail as is all my 3rd Rail PRR so I honestly haven't run any of them yet. As I recall, the internal design appeared in the original drawings to be very similar between FL9s, FP7s, F7s, and FTs. The SD9 introduced the ball bearings which has continued on every diesel since then.

I suppose I need to get that 2 rail test track up and running sooner than later eek
