Also, Tinplate Henry, Henry14a@yahoo.com recently came across a ton of old Athearn Blue Box. I believe much of
his findings are of F units, but I am certain I saw one
or two GEEP type locomotives floating around.

His prices are typically well below market. PM me and I will make a point to dredge them up and arrange the deal.

GP40s and SD40s require the newer, narrow motor with flat sides. That old grey one won't fit in the shell.

They'll also require on the GP40, GP38/40/50 trucks; the SD40-2 trucks are that engine alone.
