We don´t know the answer. Genesis made and makes a superb job with the F´s. <br />And the AC6000 is a good decision by BLI but the E7? <br /> <br />Each manufactor makes a marketresearch before starting the construction. And while the Genesis F´s is available since few years they see a market for the BLI F7 !!!!! <br />THAT`S REAL COURIOUS ! <br />[^] [:D] [%-)] [sigh] <br /> <br />What will be the market for BLI´s F7 (some with same roadnumbers like Genesis - AT&SF war bonnet #37LABC). <br /> <br />The real winner is the DCC party. Becomes a DCC ready F7 with sound - thats all. <br /> <br />In the details the BLI will be no real evolution! [:)] I don´t need locomotives with sound - Sound is a gimmick. Funny, yeah I like it, but a gimmick!
