Reply to "Pantographs"

The Bachmann, Mth, and others look close to each other if they have the silver wipers on top. If you look at the Mth Proto 2 and Lionel scale GG1 they have better looking pans, their wipers aren't shiny. I had mentioned before if you cant get them or the price is too high what I did on my MTH proto 1's is use gun bluing and it made the wipers dark so they didn't look cheap. Oh I forgot to mention I had call Midge about 5 years ago at MTH and said that there was different sizes at the base on some of the pans and you may want to check on the wipers because some of the GG1's had single wipers and some had double wipers. It depends on the road number but hey When the Pennsylvania needed a pantograph they used what they had. I have seen in pictures where same loco at differ points in time had differ pans.
