Have a question. Is there a reason why 2 tenders were made for this engine? Do they both have the same sounds?
Thanks!

The tender that came with the turbine is lettered for Lionel Lines. It does not have any backup lights. The separate sale tender is lettered for Pennsylvania and has back up lights. I have both. I do not remember if the sounds were different. I will try to remember to pull out the original tender and compare the two sounds.

If memory serves, one is lettered for Lionel Lines, other for Pennsylvania (I think the Pennsylvania was the add-on). I forget if the sounds are significantly different.

I checked out the two tenders. The one that comes with the turbine has a plastic shell, 4 wheel diecast trucks, lettered for Lionel Lines. The prime mover sounds are the same. Whistle, bell, and crewtalk are different. The base is diecast to give it some weight.
The add on tender is lettered for Pennsylvania. It has a die cast body and frame. It also has back up lights and a water scoop underneath. It also has 6 wheel diecast trucks. The whistle is more throaty.
Prime Mover? Yeah, I'm not sure what to call it either!
