New, old Y6's

Huh, never knew that. Thanx.
BTW, long's we're discussing Y6b's; if somebody makes a new Y-class, I'd 
sure like it to be a Y6a, rather than a Y6b. Heck, there was only one 
run ever made in brass even. If Walthers ever re-releases its Rivarossi 
Y6b with correct drivers, it would be a good point of difference for a 
mfr. to have done a Y6a.
My $.02.
