P5a boxcab versus other PRR electric locomotives
The P5a boxcab is a distinct Pennsylvania Railroad electric locomotive body style. This #4730 freight-scheme model is not the same as another road-numbered P5a release or a passenger locomotive from a different class. The dark green locomotive enamel, brown roof and Roman lettering help define the exact visual version.
Common questions
Does the locomotive support DCC?
The listing specifies Paragon3 sound and DC/DCC operation. Confirm your controller's supported modes and programming instructions before running it.
Will it negotiate every HO curve?
No. The listed recommended minimum is an 18-inch radius; review tighter curves, transitions and nearby clearances before ordering.
