Re: (erielack) NW-2s MU Capability?

Thanks Randy. I get what you're saying, but that would explain ( to me )
what 601-604/FE-13D means. My example was 6011-6044/FE-DD. Anyplace I can
look up the "key" for these terms. Much appreciated.

> Todd -- you're looking for an M as the first letter of the classification.
EL took the system from the Erie.  M means MU; your example doesn't have it
because it is for the former 601A, B, C, D through 604 D -- 4-unit FTs :
(F)reight (E)lectromotive (13)hundred horsepower, with (D)ynamic brakes.
These unit sets could not MU.

the NWs could MU.  Why should they?  They were yard engines.
