Ok here goes.............I would like to model a Pennsy passenger train
in say 1946 or there abouts. I want to use mostly heavyweights 'cuz the
Branchline cars look so nice. I want to pull this train with steam and all I
have right now is an M1-a. I realize that the M1's were mostly used on
freight, but would they have been used on passenger at all? What would be a
typical consist of cars? I will maybe mix a lightweight in with the
heavyweights. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,
John
