| Post subject: | EMD E-Unit Styling Model |
So I’m just covering all my bases to find any info I can on what is called a styling model that I got from a family member who worked at EMD it is solid wood and made of individual pieces and is in B&O scheme but no letters or numbers images can be found here: https://imgur.com/a/RSnDr1c the only other bit of history I know is that they got it when the EMD library was being torn down and it was going to be thrown away. Anyone know anything else about it? |

Never seen another one for a train, cars, trucks and buses yes. Would look great in a display case on a mantle ect. Neat piece of history, thanks for saving it from being trashed. Mike |

EMD's use of models, along with their styling and promotional models, their trade show displays, visible locomotives, machinery cutaways, and special displays for open house events, is covered in the third volume of a series of books I am writing on the history of EMD. PC |
