That engine appears to be a product of a theoretical merger in the past, I love Rio Grande & Penn Central, makes Penn Grande Central...Why not? Good stuff!
Have you guys ever compared the actual look of the Athearn Genesis front windshields (as these are) to the Walther's Proto 2000, BLI , or Intermountain? None of the others look at all like the prototype.
@CN413Fox I would go at least 22 too 24 inches on the diameter. The front steps on the F-unit's seem to rub against the trucks when run on 18in radius curves.
I am going to try and bid for the FP7, but if I loose I will try to get these. I'll just have to add Soundtraxx Tsunami later on in life when I can afford the decoders.
No, Penn Central bought some Rio Grande diesels and this was their patch job.

Will the A/B set be able to negotiate 18" radius curves? I will get larger radii, but my friends layout is 18 still

@CN413Fox You could go out and actually buy an FP7 you know.
