N AEM7 Loco Body Amtrak/SEPTA/MARC

Body Shell for AEM7 Electric Locomotive. Shell represents units as-built. Air conditioners for cab roofs and roof-mounted large brake resistor grid housing are available separately on this Store. This shell is not designed to fit any specific N scale mechanism, but the truckbase of the prototype is 25' 7". Fleischmann makes an N scale SJ Rc4 electric that was the prototype for the AEM7, and this would of course provide a nice accurate drive and trucks, but this model is not cheap and may only be available through European model train importers in the USA. Suitable N scale pantographs are available from several makers, including Sommerfeldt and Bachmann. Photos show a sample shell printing with Bachmann HHP-8 pantographs installed. Prints in Grey Detail.
