Pashure pemitambo mitanhatu yapfuura, zvose asi tsika imwe chete yakavakwa kune imwe nzira dzezvitima, EMD yakawana hit ne yechipiri yekugadzira E-unit.
Kufanana nemafambiro ekare, E6 yakagadzirirwa basa revatakuri, rakagadzirwa pedo nemaviri emotokisi dizeli (munyaya ino iri 12-cylinder 567 model) uye yakakwira paviri yematori A-1-A. Iko ndiko kuti, mabhiri matanhatu aya ane magetsi maviri aikonzerwa nemhepo inotenderera kune unpowered idler kugoverwa kwehuwandu.
Uyewo kufanana nemayuniki akapfuura, kugadziriswa kwemagetsi kwakaratidza kuti yakanyatsorongedzerwa mhuno. Icho chikazova kirasi yekupedzisira yakavakwa nehuyu senyaya sekushambadzira kwakatevera kuchinjwa ku "bulldog" mhuno iyo yaizoita kuti E yakasara uye F unit zvidzidzo zvizivikanwe.
E6 yakanga iri yekutanga E chikwata chekuwana kubudirira muhuwandu hwakawanda pamatareji akawanda. 91 "A unit" locomotives yakabudiswa kune gumi nemaviri. Anowedzera 26 E6-B nemagetsi akavakwawo. Izvi "Zvikwata zvekugadzira" zvaive zvakafanana nemakamuri eA, asi yakashaya teji yekugadzirisa uye zvechokwadi, iyo yakaputirwa nemhino. Chechitatu chekusiyana kwaiva maunyamu AA akavakirwa kuMasipacific Pacific ayo aigara mune imwe nzvimbo inotakura midziyo apo wechipiri mukuru wechikwata aizova.
