Notes:

Available in A. A-B. or A-B-A configurations. The B-unit could either be powered or contain a sound module. The Tuscan red paint scheme was used on passenger trains. American Models sells their FP7 Window Set for the modeler to install on those models that didn't come with window glazing.

Holt painted out the lower headlight to be consistent with PRR FP7 engines. He also added side glazing to cab door windows. The illuminated number boards have been finished with dry transfer road numbers from Woodland Scenics. A working hi-rail coupler, from AM spare parts, is on the rear.
