I have the new Lionel E9s (Union Pacific) but would really like a B unit. Buying another set and cannabilizing and repainting/touching up the bodies to make a B is a possibility, but it's both a pretty expensive option and would require work I'd rather put into other, more fun, projects.
Anyone have a suggestion for a good unpowered E9-ish type B unit (a high-quality E8 might be considered) that would have paint and graphics that fairly matches? (Paint fading and such meant that sets of engines sometimes never matched perfectly in the real world so a bit of mismatch is not a deal breaker.).
