No, they are GP60M's with a GP60B sandwiched in between.Willie -- Is that some F units I see on the lower level?
DL109/110 Project
Lets take this one up first since it is the easiest. Basically I had to get two DL109 shells so I could cut the front off of one and replace it with the tail of the other.
I did not desire to do horizontal cutting, nor individual roof segmenting, so I had to make a choice as to where to make the single cut and still preserve the closest possible spacing of the side windows. Here is my project so far.

Naturally this new 'b-unit' fits right onto the stock chassis. So both units will have power, and perhaps DCC and sound.
With the stock weight of these engines, the combination of the two should pull the walls down !!
Great looking machines.

These are excellent locos and they are the heaviest ones that I own. As an experiment, I set a single one up with 64 double stack well cars and had no issues with it alone pulling them all. I do not have grades though.I hope these all give me good service once I get my new layout up and running
