[PRR-talk] Interesting N2sa Variations

[Doug Kisala]

Hello list,

I just got my Walthers Heritage HO PRR N2s.  While I'm
still totally unsure how to redetail the engine to
conform to my late 40s timeframe without ruining it,
the model in its original state is very nice.  It runs
smoothly on DC and with a Digitrax DH163LO decoder.  

The one I purchased was numbered 8360.  While surfing
the Railroading in the Northeast page, I found a shot
of the engine, evidently out of service (note missing
eccentric rod and main rod).

While looking on that same page, I found a very
interesting shot of N2sa 8460.  It has the revised
headlight/generator locations prevalent on many K4s,
L1s, H9s, M1/M1a/M1b and I1sa engines.  This was a new
variation on a theme for me.
