Hello All-- I picked up this dummy unit at my local shop today. It's a very nice FA...great paint and lettering, window glazing, etc. Bought it (for $5) on a hunch--and was right! The shell fit perfectly on an Athearn F-7 chasis, so now I've got a beautiful runner! However, I have no idea who made this model--there's no labeling on the shell or dummy frame. Any thoughts? Chris

It could be a Walthers. It looks like a Train Miniature shell but the chassis is not.
If I remember correctly Walthers bought the Train Miniature tooling.
