Scratchbuilding PRR MP54

[Green_Elite_Cab]

Thanks for the replies everyone. I guess i failed to mention I am kitbashing a "bride and groom" in G-scale (1:29). Everything is so expensive in large scale I can have a whole train with two or three cars.

I am planning on the "owl" type. I have the PRRH&TS "Keystone" from last winter, it is a great article, it just doesn't have the money shot I need for the roof detail. Hopefully I can find that May '74 MR.

I wish there was more PRR in G scale, I would love to have an M1!

There isn't a whole lot going on atop the roof of a MP54. One "good" picture can be found in the PRR, PC, and Conrail CT.290 manuals. they have a picture of the pantograph area around an MP54. They are clear enough to make out the important parts. After that, most of the MP54 roof is barren.

I know there is a PRR and a PC CT290 online somewhere, but for the life of me i cannot find them. I do have the PRR one downloaded, and maybe the Penn Central. I also have two of the Conrail CT290s, which still feature MP54s, but i don't know how clearly i could scan it in.

PM me your Email, i'll try to send you the PRR one.
