Re:RE: (erielack) F5s or are they....

The F6 was the Hellcat.

The main difference between an F3 and an F5 was the fact that the F5 had F7 traction motors. (Jerry Pinkepank; Second Diesel Spotter's Guide; Kalmbach, 1973)

That is what spell check automatically suggested and put in, 
 
The OW units had the chicken wire grills and between the two portholes as alleged F5's had. Ever an F6?

Those weren't Phase IV F3s, they were Phase I (if memory serves me, I'll have to check at home).

And I think you mean "defunct," not "defiant." If they were defiant, they'd be running stack trains by now. ;)
