Hi,
I was wondering if you can help with a question I have: PC E8A 4300 was the only former PRR unit that was built with dual headlights. I know from seeing early pictures of the unit in PRR Brunswick Green that it was this way when new. Despite its original number (PRR 5700A), it is not the oldest of the PC/PRR E8s but I can't quite understand what accounted for the difference in this locomotive and the rest of the former PRR fleet.
Does anyone have any ideas? Also, did this unit wear Brunswick Green until PC began?
Thanks for any info,
