I am surching for pictures of a Pennsylvania H 24-66 Trainmaster. I just bought a brand new Athearn BB
model . But I can not find anny pictures. Does somebody has a good link?

Manny thanks Franz.

Pennsylvania only had 8 Traimasters #'s 8699-8707 so it may be hard to find a picture on the web. A visit to your library to order (interlibrary loan) if you know a book that has one or may some one at the PRR Historical society. I have a builders picture of the demonstrator TM-1 when painted as Wabash 550. What did you need the picture for.

A source of photos of PRR Trainmasters is Withers Publishing’s book “Train Master, The Most Useful Locomotive Ever Built” by David R. Sweetland. It’s still in print. There are 10 shots of PRR Trainmasters plus plenty o’ writing on the subject.

Now that you have the name of the publisher, author and title you will be able to buy it or if that is not an option you may ask your nice librarian to borrow a copy for you if they do not have one. If there are any other libraries they are affiliated with that have a copy then they can get it for you. Often this service is free thou it sometimes takes a little while. Sometimes no longer or less than shipping from Amazon. Good Luck.

Thanks for the reactions guys , sorry that I am a bit late .
But I have the best excuse in de World. My father diede suddenly… The love for modeling In general ,and railroad modeling , are two thinks we had in commen. My father was an English teacher.And an Anglofil in general. His main interest was British steam. I my self are an American RR fan. I read model railroader regurely, but have no subscription. So this forum is a great way to get my info… So manny greatings from Holland , and excuse me for the bad spelling. But my father was the English teacher not I.
