PRR Antenna - Model Train Forum

RJC · 06-10-2019, 04:14 PM

I finally latched on to a River Raisin Baldwin RF16 A-B-A combine. I am going to have it repainted in the traditional PRR Brunswick Green freight paint scheme. Do you know of any place I can find the correct antenna to install on both A units?

Thanks

Congratulations! Do you plan to operate it on DC or DCC? I am no help on locating a correct PRR antenna.

The antenna looks simple enough to DIY.

What frequency band was that antenna used with?

It's pretty long for anything in VHF area.

Where did you find them?

As for the antenna, I suggest you join the S Scale Model Railroading Facebook group. It is a group of scale modelers. Lots of brass experience and scratch building experience in the group.
