S. T. P. PART 2

- In part 1 we determined that 6 Flyer and 2 Lionel 0 - B - 0 (_ _ _ _ _ _ _ ) models can be labeled as ( - _ _ _ _ ) locomotives and the four Flyer 2 - B - 2’s could be referred to as models of P - ( _ _ _ _ ). (That’s the opinion of a slightly biased ( _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _) at any rate.)
