MTH produced their USRA 2-8-2 in Pennsy livery, but it did not have the Pennsy specific mods like the K-Line model.  (I don't think Lionel's version had the Pennsy mods either.)  Neither MTH or Lionel called their Pennsy version an L2.

It would be interesting to know how the tenders got swapped.

ADDED - just checked, the Lionel USRA 2-8-2 is their generic Mikado with no Pennsy mods.  I am really glad I got the K-Line and upgraded it with ERR cruise.

As far as I could find, this USRA tender carried 14.5 tons coal and 10,000 gallons water, making it on the small size for a Pennsy tender.  Here is some photos:
