    Athearn parts question

    Will an Athearn RTR shell fit on an Athearn BB frame and running gears? If not, which frames and running gears will an Athearn RTR SD40-2 shell fit on? I am thinking of a project which includes an Athearn RTR SD40-2 shell. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Thank you very much. I was unable to locate this. I also received a reply from MRC stating that they no longer had copies of the walk around instructions. It seems they missed this one. Thank you.
