Pennsylvania Trolley Museum is overhauling a 1953 model 25 ton GE diesel and converting it to our 62.50" track gauge. At some point in the life of this loco its field shunting feature was removed. We need to reinstall this to protect the loco from flashovers when operated near its 20 mph max speed. We have all the pieces, but need guidance on the correct placement of the parts in the electrical cabinet. Thus we are seeking digital images of the electrical cabinet of a 25 tonner of our vintage. It has to be one with a single door for the electrical cabinet, as older locos with two doors had an entirely different cabinet arrangement. The probably dates would range from some time in 1952 to perhaps as late as 1955/56. We'd like to have several images that compositely show the entire inside of the cabinet. If you can help on this, please PM me and I'll provide an email address. THANKS!
