The D&RGW’s PA/B-1 locomotives wore several paint schemes, the most famous of which was perhaps the “Prospector” or “Aspen Gold” paint scheme, consisting of a striking two-tone silver and gold arrangement which was highlighted by a series of four black stripes going down the side of the body.
All of these locomotives feature a DCC-friendly mechanism, allowing for simple "drop-in" installation of decoder for hobbyists operating with digital control. Our famous five-pole motor with dual brass flywheels and equipped with frictionless trucks with blackened metal wheels powers these locomotives. These units are equipped with fully-automatic magnetic knuckle couplers, with optional long shank couplers included.
