The available models in N of these locos are the as-built wartime versions. They were extensively modified on the roof and sides after the war,...
THANK YOU!!! As for the FAs, I'll just buy the Atlas version when it comes out and not have to worry about decaling it.
The thing is some N scale models of these locos have hood stripes, some don't (both PAs & FAs) I've been trying to find a photo over an overhead...
