B&O F3A/F3B Passenger Physics – image 1

Anyone have a physics set for a B&O F3A/F3B that would be geared for passenger service? Apparently, the B&O used an A-B-A arrangement on its streamlined Columbian, and I'm going to try and replicate that. The only units I've got are the B&O F7s of the 186 type, but since I can only distinguish between an FT and an F3/F7/F9 due to the box on top of the former, fudging on the accuracy of the roster numbers is OK.I presume that they'd have dynamic brakes and standard passenger gearing to match the ubiquitous E-units.

Thank you very much! I appreciate your response, and those units'll be going in the shop with a certain pair of SDP40Fs before the night's out.
