Like the bogeys and couplers, the pantograph is a separate asset, already built (fits on the A-frames on the roof). If compared side by side, it would be apparent how much taller this one is than an average GE steeple-cab: built for a Class 1 railroad, not a traction/short line. Sort of like a New Haven EY-2 compared to other Baldwin-Westinghouse steeple-box cabs. (It also has a trolley pole, but for bootstrap use only - to run the compressor and raise the pantograph.)
@gp792 - Sorry, no Christmas upload this year - this one turns out to be more involved than expected, and maybre I'm slowing down a little. (g)
Paul,
that's fine. I actually wasn't asking about a Christmas upload. I just said it reminds me of the prewar American Flyer steeple cabs.
