This is a replacement pilot and cow catcher for the N Scale Atlas 4-6-2 & 2-8-2 Steamers. It’s the same shape and size as the original and has a socket for locating a dummy coupling. The photo shown is of the 1st print, this version has rounded corners and better bolt detail.
This model has been designed for the Fine Detail Plastic Materials.
When printed in the Fine Detail Plastic it will require cleaning before painting. I recommend washing with warm soapy water then soaking in 'Goo Gone' or a similar non-corrosive product for 24 hours. Then rinsing off with warm water and allowing to dry.
