"I'm kind of curious to see what the 493 will look like as an oil burner."
I am assured that it will look the same externally, the oil bunker will be constructed to fit inside the coal space. 493's cistern is worn out and was going to be replaced in any event. It is sitting in the yard and used as a pattern for the new cistern. I suggested a fake coal load like my On3 models, but that might upset the anti-train folks (all 10 of them).
