Thanks Don. Great comparison photos. The K-Line model seems to have a bit more detail than the Williams and Lionel versions. I have been looking at some on Ebay and notice the third rail shoes are molded into the truck sides on the K-line model. It also has the small pantograph detail on the roof. I never understood what this little pantograph was for. One thing I did notice is the main pantographs is the contact shoe. It looks wimpy next to the Williams and Lionel pantograph shoes. I plan on running my locos under a catenary system and I wonder if the K-Line pantograph shoe is capable of that.
