Reply to "Walthers' War Baby Switcher"

I have never seen an SW mentioned by All Nation.    For sure they did not make it in later years from the 70s on when I have catalogues.   

The SW was a rare prototype.    This is not an SW-1 or any of the SW numbered later switchers.    Not many prototypes were made and I think Pre-WWII.     So maybe there was not much interest in it as a model.     The All Nation/General Models NW2 represents the earliest versions without louvres on the hood.    Later near the end of production, they did get louvred doors on the hood.

By the way, I have never measured my All Nation shells to know if they are wide or by how much, it was just a rumor I have heard

I did kitbash an All-Nation NW2 into an SW-1.    That was bit of a project.    I had to cut the entire cab and hood off the frame and reposition it in addtion to shortening the hood.
