Hello, can someone help me find out what phase the Kato F7 is? From my research, it appears to be an early Phase 1 built without a raised window gasket. Units with raised gaskets were built starting July of 49'. I think i did what appears to be window gasket in some proto pics, but honestly I'm not even sure this kind of detail would be noticeable in N Scale. If this is the case the Kato F7 can cover all early Phase 1s so can someone please confirm? While I'm at it the IM F7 appears to be the same phase as the Kato but of course I may be overlooking a detail that would indicate otherwise.
