Another possibility is to recreate the GE E2Bs using ALCO FAs as the starting point. Basically you need to remove the roof, install another roof lower than the top of the locomotive, remove most of the details on the side of the locomotive, and install the pantographs. GE made the E2Bs as demonstrators in the 1950s. They ran on the Great Northern, New Haven, Virginian, and Pennsylvania. The PRR purchased them to run long term comparisons to the Westinghouse E3C and E3B demonstrators which they also purchased. <br /> <br />The Westinghouse locomotive bodies might be made from Baldwin Sharknose bodies but the chassis would be a problem.
