I thought the L was since the frame was lengthened... And why would EMD make another long distance unit if they already had the E and F units for that?Plus, the FL9s are notoriously underpowered. Long distance trains (and New York - Boston on the Merchant's Limited doesn't count!) would STILL be underpowered with two FL9s, but a pair of Es could handle it easily... Not exactly cost effective to have three units on one train if two could do it just as well and cheaper! The battle of the FL9s... [:P]
