The Broadway Limited model is specific to the Pennsylvania RR. The PRR gave their 4-8-2's the class designation "M1". <br /> Many railroads operated locomotives of the 4-8-2 wheel arrangement, commonly called "Mountains", but the PRR's 4-8-2's were very destinctive with a boiler design and many appliances unique to the PRR. It would be very difficult to re-detail the Broadway Limited model to look like any other railroad's 4-8-2. <br />A few roads did buy second-hand steam locomotives from the PRR, but I do not believe that any of the M1's were sold off as these engines were mainstays of the Pennsy fleet well into dieselization. <br />Jim
