One of the ones with the PT tenders. But which one? Probably 5452 since all of the drivers are the same. I wish they would switch the other one to all boxpok but I'm just thankful for no whitewalls. I sat out the Allegheny and Niagara for that reason and hated it.

Takes about 5 minutes with lacquer thinner to get rid of the whitewalls and any other white paint. Just did that on a Mogul and will do the same with my Niagara.

You can see the results in this thread. All of the lettering and stripes were removed this way. No damage to the underlying paint.

On the fence for 5405 until I find out the status of getting smokebox fronts sans class lights.

That's encouraging on the whitewalls - look forward to seeing if it works as well on your Niagara. I just don't understand why Lionel put whitewalls on all 4 or 5 black Niagara road numbers when they know that is a sometimes polarizing issue for buyers. You would think they would want to diversify a little more to broaden the appeal. I voted with my wallet on that release.
