Notes

(1) In 1968, EE unveiled and marketed their Low Weight Transfer bogie as a factory option. Choosing this bogie raises the Factor Of Adhesion to 29%.

(2) Super late Mk II units (July 1972-April 1973) had the option to use the 558 type traction motor. Therefore, max generator current is 2,025A, max TM and DB current is 675A and max continuous TM and DB current is 540A.

(3) Automatic w/ Selector is optional. Those who want to MU their EEs to anything that uses AAR 27-pin plugs with 100% compatibility are highly encouraged to exercise this option.

(4) APR + Sand is optional.

(5) 6SL and 24-RL were optional.
