Hello all,
Does anyone know if a shell from a A unit can be installed on a b unit?
reason for asking is; I have a dummy A and would like a powered unit... finding what I need seems next to impossible.
thank you

Also, I am aware the pilot would need to be transferred over as well.
In general, swapping the motors and electronics from the B into the A unit frame is what you want to do. In this way you still have complete dummy B unit after the swap. The A shell will not fit properly on a B frame.

Why will the A shell not fit on the frame sans a wiring connection for a headlight?
The 'dummy' B unit would be discarded/sold since that's not my road of desire.
Thanks for the input.
The frame of the B is rectangular whereas the A has a rounded front end. The front of the A shell would not cover the square corners of the B frame, even if the attaching bosses and screw holes aligned.

The Atlas frame is identical for both the A and the B. There are alternative mounting locations for stirrups.

Thank you!
that was the info I was looking for.
Also, is the atlas B unit (powered) command and Railsounds equipped? Or just powered and command?
