    Yep, I'd go for the high short hood, complete with the nose mounted bell and the nifty all weather windows:

    I went by Laurinburg last week, they were cutting up cars in front of the shops :( There was also a loco missing part of a hood... I hope it wasn't being cut up too :confused:

    BTW, what was under that tall hood besides the toilet? I never did see any on the Katy back when they were around.
