I am happy to see AZL release EMD SW1500 Switchers, but apparently it comes with this notice; "Note: AZL is advising customers not to attempt to remove the shells of the SW1500s. Doing so may result in damage to the locomotive¡¯s shells."
Anyone have any idea what the rest of the story is?? Hard to imagine running these or any other z locos for a long time without lifting the shell to clean the inevitable dust and grime that accumulates or replace worn parts.
Are really not to ever see the chassis of these switchers?
