Looking for Amtrak AEM-7 Parts Info
Author: mgwsy1978

I am looking for some info and detailed pictures of an Amtrak AEM7-AC and DC Dynamic Brake resistor grid. If anyone knows of a contact at Amtrak or has any blueprints showing dimensions that would be a great help too. I have searched everywhere and cant find what I am looking for. If anyone can help you can EMail me at MGWSY@aol.com or shoot me a PM.

Thank You

Mark G

Mark,
There are photos here, not the best but one of 929 is pretty good. http://hebners.net/Amtrak/amtAEM7AC.html
Take note that you need to decide which motor you plan to model, because the 918 has a second row of vent just above the roofline, 929 doesn't have these. That's the most I can offer.

That's vary interesting and I never noticed the extra vents. I am trying to gather info so I can make a Photo Etched set to super detail the Atlas AEM-7 locos. I will have to find a way to measure or get measurements of the housings somehow.
