[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by MichaelSol</i> <br /> <br />Of course, that underscores the problem of all those E7B's, which were the least flexible motive power of all. <br /> <br />Best regards, Michael Sol <br />[/quote] <br />If Sol's criteria for "least flexible" is a unit without a cab, then the Miwaukee boxcab center units would have won that prize, being restricted to electrified mainline track and yards, and being rigidly coupled to their sisters. Talk about limited in usability, unlike a diesel "B" unit, which could travel any track. <br />
