Well, I won't be holding it against you. I do remember that the first time I saw
it, (Irony) it was on a forum and bieng laughed at for its ugliness. So there.
Seems not many people like it anyway.

I always thought that the PA's nose was wee bit long- at least when compared
with EMD's E's and F's. Kinda like a dog's muzzle (no offense here) But I can
see how fans of the heydays of diesels would like it. IIRC, one of the earliest
models you built was a PA... so you really must like it.
