I took some pictures of inside the engine and tender.
I don't see a place to add a battery in the tender except for the 2 prong connector in the lower left corner of the board. Anyone know if that is for a battery?
Thanks for posting pics. The Atlantics tend to be back heavy and pivot on the rear drive wheels, which makes them pretty wobbly. MTH versions have the same issue, so I think it has to do with the nature of the Atlantic (only 4 drivers, and, well, back heavy). Not sure if that's always the case, or if they fixed it (purposely or unwittingly), or if its true on earlier versions, but my Legacy exhibits this condition as does my MTH premier version (which is way too long and looks just wrong to my eye anyway).
I am going to look at my legacy to see if there's any possible place to add some weight inside the front somewhere.
I am in the process of converting a B&O to a somewhat proper PRR version of this Belpaire-boilered Atlantic. I might end up with a round boiler-plate simple non-pinstripe tender version of the PRR 460, which I don't know even existed in such form.
