3rd Rail L3b Mohawk

I found some time this weekend to clean some projects off the workbench. I got this with some minor cosmetic issues for an ok price. Someday I may hunt down some proper flag holders for the pilot since the originals were beyond saving. The elephant ears were not included and not to be found by the seller but it looks better without them. I mounted up a Kadee 805 (still like these better than the 740s for grabbing onto trains) but ran out of ambition to detail the tender drawbar even after finding decent photos of the 2 rail version on the internet. A note on these 3rd Rail tenders, one must ensure the coupler and/or gearbox is isolated from the tender shell which is the TMCC antenna. I used a plastic gearbox to maintain the integrity of the antenna.

Here are some phone pics and a YouTube:
