I'm thinking 4460 uses steel rimmed (powered) and 4450 uses plastic rimmed
(unpowered) with the motor unit in the tender. That looks like a glint of
steel on the tender wheels.
That's good news because it means we get a new size wheel for building our own
locos with. I was scared at first that we'd ONLY get the sealed small/2large
power unit. If we're really lucky, the small steel wheels are power pickup
wheels to power the lights instead of attached to the larger unit.
