Converting a Weaver chain drive GP38-2 from 3 rail to 2 rail, which NWSL wheel sets do I need?  I see a couple choices available on thier website.  Not looking for the finest scale flanges, but something a tad coarser that will tollerate less than perfect track work.  Thanks  Mike

Duh, good idea. The engine just arrived today, factory NS unit. Now I need to see if I can find something close horn wise.  Correct horn is either a Nathan P5 or P5a with all trumpets facing forward.  I am going to use the Atlas high short hood to make her a true NS unit and not a aquired ex IT unit.  Even with the dynamics, its not correct for one of the ex Illinois Terminal GP38-2 low hoods. When I worked for NS in 1998, the GP38-2 was the class I spent the most time on, between locals, yard jobs and road jobs.  Back to the horn, does PSC or anybody else have anything close?  Are there any of them in kit form where I can set the trumpets how I need to?  I am not going for a superdetailed unit, just the major spotting features.  Thankfully mine has no gear issues.   I found that the Cal Scale 3031 horn is what I need, found one.  Anybody else have one as I need 2 total.  P&D isnt set up for paypal and my funds are there.  Thanks
