Not odd at all. As you may know, real railroads didn't have locomotives based on details. (unlike modelers).
Thanx Thom...

A bit of web search reveals: BRW 752 was built as NP 256, with a 2200 gal. fuel tank. A 1971 photo with BN numbers
painted over the NP scheme shows no steam generator but a steam loco style swinging bell mounted atop the short hood.
Other units in the same order are similar. I expect fuel tanks larger than the stock 1,600 gal. required moving the
air reservoirs to the top of the long hood.

By the way, I found Detail Associates makes an air intake filter piece and Miniatures by Eric also makes the same piece.

Thanks for the encouragement Louis. I have several projects I've started but my work has been good and keeps me busy about six and a half days a week. I hit 70 years young in May and thinking about semi retirement. After all, I have a railroad to build. Take care....John
