Hi Ken:

Most FP's ran with F-7B units or as "AA" combo's There were no FP-7B's!

Pretty unit!

A Tyco B-unit is the only one I can think of that would have the Pennsy single stripe paint scheme.
I painted my own, it was a pain in the butt to decal, Getting the stripe on straight was bad enough but each letter had to be added individually to get the proper spacing.

Beautiful job, Ray - fantastic work. What kind of paint did you use - brand, I mean.

Thanks Chris, I use Floquil paint with Testers Dullcoat sprayed over it after the decals are applied to seal and blend the decals.
