I just downloaded the NW pack so that I could run one of Scot Clawson's activities on the Pokey (and a nice one it is, too!), but all of the C425's and C630's have modern radios prominently displayed on the cabview front.ace file.

Are there non-radio alternatives so I can go back to the early 50's?

Thanks,

Dave

Dave,

The Alco C425 was produced from 1964-66, the C630 from 1965-69. Most likely did have radios.

HOW-EVUH, they probably didn't have radios with an LED display!

If I can find some adequate in-cab shots, maybe we can replace the modern radio with something more '60s'

Rick

Hi Rick,

Thanks. I must have the 50's on the brain, as the act I was fiddling with is set in the early 60's (when those Century models would have been brand new). So radios are okay, just not, as you point out, LED ones! Laughing

Cheers,

Dave
