Questions for you detail guys......   do you see any differences between the Class A 1222 and 1238?  other than the road number?





   

N&W Guy has it right about the 1222 vs 1238.

But additionally the illustration of the 1238 shows a wrong tender and wrong tender trucks. The more accurate tender would be one from the Y6b minus the Buckeye trucks. Lionel has the mold for this tender shell so I'm not sure why they wouldn't use it. Maybe they will if someone asks.

The 1238 should also have the same Commonwealth trucks that were used under the J 611-613 tenders. Those trucks were different than the earlier numbered J tenders. Lionel also has these molds so maybe they will use them, but how would anyone know but to ask.
