What are the odds when you cut a hole in the wall for a tunnel that you would find a stud?

I just got back to the Train Room from Colasanti’s Market in Highland, Michigan. This is a fun store for model train buffs because they have a G-Scale ceiling layout. Check it out.

It is late 1949 and a pair of Pennsy Sharks are getting ready to pull out with a coal drag.  While all Sharks were delivered with the 5-stripe passenger engine paint scheme, they were bought for freight service.  By the late '50s most were repainted with the single stripe of a freight engine.

These are Lionel Century Club II Sharks.

This is either a continuation of or a correction to my post above on PRR freight Sharks.  I said in that post that all Pennsy Sharks were delivered with the 5-stripe passenger paint scheme, which is true.  However, I gave the impression that all Sharks were freight Sharks which is wrong.  The Pennsy did receive nine ABA sets of BP20 Passenger Sharks, which were considerably longer than the freight Sharks.  Below are some photos for comparison.  The short engine is Lionel's version of the freight Shark, the long engine is Weaver's version of the passenger Shark.
