One last thing ( from me anyway)
The Pennsylvania Lines West version, with "Pennsylvania Lines" lettering on the high side tender.
Is there any chance that could be changed that to just "Pennsylvania" on the high side tender for production?
It seems this loco is too late of a prototype for the " Lines" lettering.
From what I've seen. heard, and read, for this era, Pennsy west locos had only the "Pennsylvania" logo on the tender, like the rest of the railroad at that time.
I second what RickO said about the 'Pennsylvania Lines' lettering. I would love to have the opportunity to purchase one with the high side tender and only 'Pennsylvania' lettering. Of course the step pilot would be the icing on the already delicious cake!
