Hey guys I am not having luck with evil bay as of yet but I am looking for a chassis from the RTR series of Athearn (NOT BB Ath) It needs to be for a SD40-2. I have a shell I want to put on it. Thanks for your help in advance!
Alco, you should repost this in the For Sale/WTB section of the forum. Have you checked with Athearn for a chassis? If they have them in stock, the price is pretty reasonable.
Geesh! I am still looking for a chassis for this unit.....

What is the difference between the BB and the RTR?

The BB has 4 mounting pins, 2 on each side. The RTR shell slides completely over the frame and mounts with the coupler pockets and screws.
