If you have this engine, would you mind providing the dimensions or part number of the electric dynamo on the rear of the tender by the water hatch. Any close-up pics would be helpful too.
Thanks for any responses!

Hey TRAINMSTR, I have that engine and would be glad to take some measurements & photos for you as soon as I get a chance. Stay tuned...
UPDATE: Here are some photos and measurements...
And here are some measurements (in inches) taken with a digital caliper...
Overall length (end of cylinder tank to end of cylinder tank) = 1.055”
Diameter of cylinder tank = 0.345”
Height from tender deck to top of cylinder tank = 0.45”
Height from tender deck to top of “funnel” = 0.85”
Diameter at widest point near top of “funnel” = 0.31”
Hope this helps. Be sure to share photos of your finished project!

CNJ #1601 Thank you so much for taking time to photograph and measure the generator for me! It's forum members like you that make this site the wealth of information that it is.
You're welcome. Glad I could help!
Well I've created a 3D model using the dimensions provided by CNJ#1601 and photos I found in the CNJ books I have. I think my model is more accurate than the MTH version but I still need to get more info on the end closest to the turbo. I have provided holes for a lifting ring, for the flexible conduit power out, and for a condensation line. I plan to use wire slipped into these holes to replicate the lines. I also hollowed out the steam exhaust. I used Tinkercad to make the model, it's free. The Pacifics had a slightly different dynamo, only difference I could tell was the exhaust pipe included (2) elbows so the exhaust exited from the center of the dynamo. Will post a pic when it's complete.
