Good Morning, all!

I'm looking for interior shots of the cab interior of the units rebuilt by Chrome Crankshaft. The Railroad Museum of New England is currently cosmetically restoring New Haven 2019 and I'm just trying to confirm a few items. Thanks so much!

Perfect! Thanks so much. This is exactly what I wanted to see. We have been attempting to figure out where and how the radios mounted.

That picture reminded me of how 2013 looks in Danbury meaning the interior
I believe the radio was mounted on top of the instrument panel but not sure
It's been quite a while since I've seen inside of a Fl9

This FL-9 was one of 4 rebuilt by Eastern Railcar of Hillside NJ (I believe in 1987). They all had the same stacking of components on the engineer's left side. I know the 2017 was another one of this group, but I can't recall the other unit numbers.
