Reply to "I double-Decapod Dare You!"

From what I remember of the PRR ore trains, as covered by a fantastic photo documentary in Trains Magazine of the mid 1950s, there were usually two decapods on the head end, and two more pushing on the rear. There was even an excellent 1957 16mm movie of an ore train with two decapods on the headend, and an A-B-B-A set of F Units pushing on the rear. Those ore operations were in the Shamoken/Mt. Caramel Pennsylvania area.

So,,,,,,,,,,,depending on the era you are modeling, you need two more decapods.
