    I was wondering if the NH C425 fleet were dynamic or non dynamic brake equipped. I am considering modelling one and they don't appear to have the typical ALCO bulge on the roof of the car body but I have yet to find an actual roof shot. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I actually found the answer to my question in a back issue of Diesel Era. The New Haven C425's were built without dynamic brakes and after the PC merger they stayed in their home territory because of their lack of dynamics.

    I'm trying to think of a place on line to see a photo. Ideas?

    I searched all of the usual photo sites and none had good roof shot then I found one of LAL C420 #420 with C425 # 425 ex NH 2557 trailing On RR picture archive. I can't post a photo or link for two more days since I'm a noob.
