Here are some photos of M1 4-8-2 PRR 6743. A BLI model, it now sports a heavily modified tender from a Spectrum K4 and a new pilot. I wanted a model of an early M1 without the "coast to coast" tender and with the passenger pilot. It took a significant amount of modification, but I was successful, as well as keeping the DCC and sound features intact. On the track behind 6743 you can see an M1b with "coast to coast" tender for comparison. Notice also the Sargent Engineering couplers. I recently changed to Sargents as standard, as well as magnetic and self coupling air hoses on rolling stock.
