That's a good looking set of F3s. Is it restored or original ?
The A (one powered, one dummy) units are 1950 2343 chassis that I repainted. I never cared for black pilot shields and black rear steps so I painted them silver. The shells on the A units are replacement shells Lionel issued for the conventional classics F3s. The Railsounds II F3B (6-18136) is from 1997, the other dummy F3B is from 1994 (6-18115).
