Went all the way to page 14 looking for the old thread on this. A friend and I have CLW cast sides and roof for the older all cast PA, and are looking for nose halves. It would be nice to restore one more of these ancient beauties. If any of you or your friends have a pair of noses laying about, let us know.
I will post a photo or two of these beasts. We call them doorstops for a very good reason.

Photos - two for now. One shows the first unit I found, the other a newly assembled set of castings on F-M trucks.
Unfortunately Bob all my cast brass locomotives are HO. I have the PA made by Cambro as an A-B in cast brass and one A unit cast in aluminum. Never could find out the history of these diminutive paperweights, but maybe one day I'll find out.
Hello Bob ...sorry no extra noses ... the all cast PA's and sooo much better than the etched side ones ( in my opinion) ...cheers Carey
