  • @1225dude The Leslie S2M. Used on Metro North, Long Island Railroad, and other railroads.

  • what kind of horn is that?

  • What a great piece of history, one of the museum on my list to see.

  • Many old passenger units had two sets of horns.

  • great work on the horn!

  • Actually I've been into trains all my life. You're absolutely correct about Mars lights in the upper casing. But to me by putting the stationary headlight in the lower casing it totally changes the appearance on the unit. But hypothetically, if you put the Mars light in the lower casing it would maintain a similarity to those units with just the upper casing. I hope I made this clear.......:>/

  • You must be new to passenger units. I've always seen the mars light in the upper casing. EMD's, Alco's both had them like that.

  • Don't flame me just my opinion but to me this beautiful unit would look that much better if the stationary headlight was in the top casting and the Mars light was in the lower.

  • Great looking streamliner and the horn's sound just right not to loud

  • Nice to know she is safe. None of our diesels in the UK come close, to the gracefull lines of the PA's F's and the early E's.
