Fred Hilgenberg All Messages By This Member #67516 It's for the guys "down the line" from me that sometimes want to shoot a particular unit, like a roster shot. If it's long hood forward in a consist, they may not want that (especially those that want a head on 3/4 wedge shot).?

Depending on the situation; if there are just the two (Motors) locomotives on the front end of a train, by having one facing frontwards, and the other in the opposite ?direction; they, as a pair would not need turning, at the end of a run if they were next set up on the head end another train in the opposite direction.
