Couple of questions and observations...

1. A & B units - I assume a "B" unit is a non-passenger / non-cargo unit
that drives behind the main engine?  Correct? So on

the B unit is the second unit in the first graphic.

2. Has it been determined if the 10020 windows are true round windows or
stickers? It is tough to tell from

I'm pretty sure stickers were mentioned in a post on Monday.


3. If LD were to produce a Sante Fe parts service pack, it would seem to me
a service pack would need to also have gray wheels and the gray engine sides
along with the window port panels. I would purchase multiple copies of the
expansion set just for the gray wheels and engine sides.

I think the service pack will provide the parts to change the engine into
the b-unit - *not* provide the essential b-unit parts you mention... but I'd
rather it was your way.

  Stickers and Windows (Was Re: transcript is up)
 
The 10020 has both Stickers and Windows. The side circular windows are an actual piece NOT a sticker. The text 'santa fe' on the sides and front are stickers! See me images on the brickshelf side for real close ups of the engine that they brought to (...) (23 years ago, 20-Feb-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) The portholes are 2x2 clear thinwalls that have been printed red or grey. The # tile is printed. The Santa Fe graphics are stickers. (...) Ditto, but I don't mind buying multiple 10020s to build other cars. -- | Tom Stangl, iPlanet Web Server (...) (23 years ago, 20-Feb-02, to lugnet.trains)
