Yes, that's true. But I always wondered what possessed Lionel to think that the PRR had something that resembled an EP-5 in even the most general way. Milwaukee and Great Northern both had double-ended electrics, which I assume Lionel was looking at (through very foggy spectacles, granted) when they painted the EP-5 in those railroads' colors. Not sure what their inspiration for the Pennsy version was.
Sales. Anything with Pennsy on it..
