Yet another help question from me LOL. Im just full of questions today. I suppose sitting here with a migrane dont help any so im trying to do stuff to distract me till the meds kick in.

Ok Down to 1 frame to figure out.


appears to be RTR line looks like this frame would be held to the shell bu the couplers, as it dont have the 4 tabs or the 4 slots by the motor., ill add a top vew of the frame as soon as photobucket is back up.

thanks mike


Thanks for everyones help so far.

3rd one down is the old "widebody" SD7. The last one may be a U30C frame.

the last one is longer then a u boat frame. thats what i thought it was also.

The fuel tank and the truck sideframes tell me that's some kind of 2nd-generation 'SD' frame. With the metal headlight bracket all the way forward like it is, I'd guess it was either an SD45 or a tunnel motor.

The one on the top of each pic looks like a keyboard.

The trucks are funky though, they look nothing like any EMD truck I've seen. Unless I've gotten rusty.

[stang_crazy]

We have a winner!!!!!.

after searching through i dont know how many engine parts sheets i finaally came across one that had the part # listed.

It was close to an F45 like some thought so close that its an FP45. YAAAAY

 

[wheeler1963]

Mike, that was supposed to be a GP60. LOL Got a sticky "6" key.

I knew it was some type of EMD 6-axle. BTW - why did you take that 4th pic out of there?

not sure if its that either because the fuel tank on this frame is completely smooth.

to where the gp50/60 isnt hmm i may have to send a picture to athearn and see if they can help.

 

[wheeler1963]

the newer GP60M's and B's. I have 6 sitting right here. Completely smooth and narrower tank.
