Hello,
Is it possible to fit the MU2 motor into a shell that usually had a PT?
Thanks

| YES-- I have done it to an alco430 and an Rock Island Shark which you have to make modifications for MU2 to work on Tyco sharks

Great!!!! That's the locos I want to repower.
What modifications did you have to do to the Shark Nose? The modification was on the shell or the motor?
Thank you!

Ernesto--go to Tyco Motive Power and look for MU converted Diesels. I posted pictures on the shark mod required. Feel free to pm me for any additional questions--Brian The modification is on the rear truck only. The only thing you need to do for front truck is to completely remove coupler pocket.
