As I understand from various outside comments, the Bachmann E60CF shell tooling was broken. I don't know any other details. The model was offered only in Chessie yellow and orange (Item No. 0740) and Santa Fe Warbonnet (Item No.  0741). The irony is that it was never offered in it's prototype paint scheme, the Black Mesa and Lake Powell. The completed BM&LP units were delivered (dead in Transit) by Santa Fe to a location near Flagstaff, and then trucked to their home rails, so at least they traveled on the Santa Fe.

The model was powered by two truck mounted pancake motors, however I have seen examples of models repowered using Atlas U-Boat C-truck drives. I don't know what frames were used.
