No there's that odd fish that's been staring at me from the back of one of my mags from the 1990's. Jeff, is that one from 3RD Rail? If it is, I'd say that's ironic. That old magazine has been staring at me for some time and I always thought the Q1 was odd but interesting. Glad to see they don't just sit around with the stares of, "What weird thing is this?" Nice find.
@DAVE NYC HUDSON PRR K4, I am not usually into the one offs. The Q1 was experimental, only one made. Idea was a dual service. Going from more commonly seeing the Q2, the wheels on the Q1 are very striking. Having one set of cylinders in back allowed for large wheels. Ultimately a fail in that it never went int production. The sole Q1 ended up serving in freight service for quite some time however.
Edit: sorry yes 3rd Rail. Tmcc added and some other upgrades (LEDs and smoke unit)
