Thanks a lot guys... appreciate the info.... I'd like to have a couple of these "growling" westward out of Chicago on my layout. Good stuff....

In the Mid 1980s Model Power sold an E-8/9 made by Roco, and was offered in BN in the Correct paint scheme. Rivorossi/IHC have in the past sold an E-8/9 AA set in BN as well. However one will need to paint the black paint on the roof as it is painted solid BN Green with the appropriet lettering in white.

Micro-scale also sells the correct decals for these engines. You can paint up a Proto-2000 loco in that scheme.

I think Kato did an E-8/9 N scale in Cascade green paint a while back-I don't know of any HO equivalant at the moment.

Is anyone aware of any companies that have modeled BN's "E" units used on the Chicago-Aurora line during the 70's, 80's and early 90's? I used to ride these commuter trains every day to work when I lived in Chicago and would like to incorporate them on my new layout currently in development.

Any help would be appreciated!
