I was browsing ebay last week and happened on this new-looking Con-Cor B&O E7 for $15 - no bids. I'm a sucker for E units and it looked worth more than that to me, so I put a minimum bid and waited. Yes every once in a while the wolves leave one alone .

I really like it and will keep my eye open for them in the future. All-wheel drive, nice and heavy....and it looks like they scoured the parts bin for the biggest motor they could squeeze into the shell! Have not put knuckle couplers on it yet so don't know how well it pulls, but I'd guess it's pretty good at it. It came with an extra coupler for the front and a set of horns I haven't installed yet.

Nice find, Jerry. It's made by Roco, and is an upgraded version of the one they made for Model Power. It should pull the paint off the walls.

That's awesome. Let's hitch it up to my Chevy and see who can pull harder.

Jerry,
First the turbine now this. I'm trying to move. I don't even have time to add quotes.
Great piece. Hope you enjoy it!
