I have a American Flyer Alco PA 360. I have had trouble finding information on it. All I need is to know what is the correct lamp for the head light?
Thanks in advance.
Looks like the old 1449 bulb would do the job. Take a look at this site:

Thanks!! That helps a lot.
It is bookmarked now. [:)]
It is amazing how fast that thing flies when you grease and oil it!!
Gotta love American Flyer

watch out!!

Does anybody know if its normal for Flyer diesels to run slow when cold, and then run much faster after they have had a chance to warm up? I have a 490 from 1956 and a 21927 from 1960, and they both run this way. Even after a thorough cleaning and lube they still run this way. Any info would be appreciated.
Got me, I am new to Flyer. I had a set given to me a little while ago and just broke it out and am giving two rail a try. Three rail has been my MO for the last 30 some years.
Mine was acting the same way untill I cleaned and greased, oiled and ran it backwards for a couple hours. After that I get good results out of the gate.
Yes, the 360-361 is a good runner, even though I have never gone after the horn to try to make it work. I like the impression it gives that it is realistically working hard - and sounds like it! - at medium-low speed with a train of 5-6 plastic red-stripers behind it as some wheel slippage occurs while going through a switch. After all, the BIG ones don’t have Pull-Mor either!
