I've been doing some research on Western Pacific locomotives for modelling purposes and I'm curious about something. WP was noted for using Pyle "Mountain" headlights on it's GP7, 9, 20, 35 and 40 models, and I've noticed that on the cab headlights, the numberboard area is different from other EMD locos with the twin sealed beam headlights. <br />The most noticable thing is that, with the Pyle headlight, the small curved area on the bottom center of the numberboard isn't there. The other thing I've noticed is that the flat area where the headlight is mounted looks wider. I'm wondering if the numberboards are the same, with just the headlight mounting area being wider, or if the boards are completely different. <br /> <br />John
