If only I had the cash and somthing for them to pull, I would've got me an ATSF A/B set when the P2K units came out last year. Straight beautiful.

I have the PA's & E7's w/o sound from the first 1997 run. In those days, MR describe their
drawbar pull as brute force for these 23 oz locos.

I love those locomotives!!!
I was only able to grab one of the D&H units this last time around unfortunatly.

Anyone have a guess when Proto is coming out with the next batch of PA's?

I've been looking for an AB set of ATSF PAs. I really don't have anything for them to pull, but they'd still be awesome locos to have.

This would be a perfect model to put sound in.
