Reply to "Missing Turbogenerator on JLC and Vision Line Big Boy"

For what it's worth, if you are attempting to model the 4014, or even the 3985 and 844, there are two "turbogenerators" (actually called Dynamos) , ever since the cab signal equipment was up-graded the the combined UP - CNW solid-state system. Thus the requirement for more wattage, because every time the radio was keyed to transmit, the cab signal equipment would drop-out. Check prototype photos of 844, 3985, and 4014 over the last 15 or more years and you will see twin dynamos, on the Fireman's side.
