Hi, <br /> <br />I am going to put together a very nice document which I believe will help out many people here, including myself. I am buying quite a bit of older Athearn equipment, some have trashed shells but great motors, others are vice versa. <br /> <br />I want to make a document which will list what shells will fit on what chassis's. For instance I already know that an SW7 shell will fit perfectly on a Baldwin S12 motorized chassis. So far, this is what I know for sure; <br /> <br />SW7 Cow - SW7 Calf - S12 - All interchangeable <br />PA1 PB1 - Interchangeable <br /> <br />I don't have any SD9, SD45 or SDP-40's but I'm thinking all the 12 wheelers have the same chassis. I know some of you guys have the answers, I've seen some very knowledgable posts here. <br /> <br />Any and all help is appreciated, I'll put together all the findings. Right now I would just like to concentrate on snap-on changes, no mods. Also, if you know of shells from other manufacturers that will pop right on to an Athearn chassis, please throw that info in also. I'm not really looking for the obvious, like Stewart shells, they're manufactured for that purpose. I'm looking for the not so obvious from other manufacturers. <br /> <br />Thanks
