The author modified the A-B-A set of S-Helper Service PRR F7 models by adding opened front coupler doors, Pennsy nose lift rings, and additional grab irons. The PRR antenna took a bit more work. The author built a brass drilling jig, so that he could properly position the stanchions for the antenna, and duplicate that effort on the other A-unit. He tested the A-B-A consist to work properly in DC (required some electrical work), before installing DCC. The article ends with how he painted the modified areas and applied weathering.
