Notes:

These kits are unpainted brass bodies with the chassis. Note that the kit box may state "O scale". The modeler needs to add trucks (chassis is designed to take the American Models' trucks), motor and drive gear, and locomotive-specific detail parts such as horn, bell, screen wipers, etc. Note that the S-scale model manufacturer Century Models has additional or replacement 3D-printed parts available for this model, if you wish to customize yours.

Colin took photos of his two painted and lettered models. Final details have not yet been installed on these. The Conrail model has had handrail wires added to the basic model as supplied by Gilmaur.

The PC model has had handrail, horn, and cab signal box added.

The modeler needs to add trucks (chassis is designed to take the American Models' trucks), motor and drive gear, and locomotive-specific detail parts such as horn, bell, screen wipers, etc. The kit was near identical to the company's U23B offering, with a different number of hood doors.
