MKT RS-3M 142 Long Hood Wedge Shot |
| Description: |
You can see that this locomotive has the Long Hood Side mark as the front with the F. I have heard that the reason why the long nose is considered the front side on many of these units is becasue most steam engines have the cabs in the rear. |

Mail Grab Hook on KCS RPO 30 |
| Description: |
Yes, that is my hand holding up the hook to show you how it works. The hook would snach a bag from a pole at a depot and when it snacthes you have to catch it before it drops out from the hook and you lose the mail all over the tracks, which would be a bad thing. |
