I've already ordered a PA-PB-PB-PA in New Haven. Love this one and the PA's to follow. Cab Forward Lover.
I didn't know NH didn't have PB's I knew Delaware and Hudson didn't. Maybe on my little layout they might correct that error. I've always heard there are no errors in model train lashups. But, I do thank you for the information. I only hope we can buy spare, blank PB's for us stubborn foamers.
I am sorry for any confusion I may have caused on this PB issue. My dealer who is very knowledgeable wasn't aware that some railroads didn't have them. To add to the confusion some model companies do produce them (I.E. USA trains has PB's for the McGinnis paint job on New Hampshire P.B.'s.)

I have to admit that the latest PA1 in New Haven colors is a great looking locomotive. Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t this the first engine offered from AZL in this road name. It’s nice see some new road names, even though it would look out of place on my Western Santa & Pacific layout. However, it’s great to see another Western Pacific locomotive in the Perlman Green & Orange color scheme. These new WP SW1500 will find a home on my layout. AZL keep up the great job in your offerings!

That one has been on my "someday" list for a long time. My wife is a New Yorker and I have ridden behind those back and forth to the city many times. A nice scene rolling beside the Hudson would be really cool!
