Microben, the all-plastic dummy B unit (which I assume refers to the bottom one) is the original Globe version. These were interesting in that they actually came with two interior bulkhead pieces to separate the vestibules from the engine compartment--pieces that were virtually invisible from the outside! It is the only one of the four I have.

Everyone's LOTW submissions this week are awesome!! Enjoy my LOTW offering:
This just arrived in the mail today - an Ebay score from last weekend, of $30.00, with shipping included, for this loco along with 3 other HO-Scale cars. I present...."Red Box" era Made-in-the-USA Baltimore & Ohio F7A #283!! It is seen here after being tested on the "LTT" (Locomotive Test Track), and runs superbly with a powerful headlight. B&O F7A #283 features the old style screw-in trucks.
At the train show this weekend, I'm looking forward to hopefully finding a Tyco dummy B&O F7 A-unit or B-unit, to trail behind this one. Then, I can add it to the roster of locomotives to serve on the Ephrata Valley Railroad.

Amazing addition to a focused collection from a unique, and delightful,
part of Americana. This is why I have trouble with the Theory of Evolution
as it is oft described: by default, your collection, and your passion,
is evolved from a lung fish. What we know of the universe does not reflect
this level of randomness, not at the level of a bubble nor the moons of
Pluto.
