Bud, How do you like those Lionel SD38's? I missed the EJ&E units.
Actually, I like it a lot. As a matter of fact, its one of my favorite locomotives. I WISH I could find the #654! Debating really hard on installing the scale couplers and fixing the pilots. Lionel actually included the scale couplers mounts in the box

BK,

Yeah, wishing I got some of these from Lionel. Definitely add the Kadees and the kinematic pilots aren't terrible, but an easy fix especially if you want to have full length handrails. Assuming it's got the kinematic pilots just by the looks? I need to see if they can easily be converted to 2R scale wheels. I've got some electrical pickup strips, but was also thinking I might go dead rail in these if I could get them to 2R...
