Thanks for the info Jerry.

On our layout #489 will strictly be a freight hauler while #473 will handle the passenger trains.

So that most likely means white class lenses for #489.

To anyone interested in the model; it is manufactured in Germany by KISS. The only available version you can still get straight from KISS is painted for C&T. I had a little difficulty finding my D&RGW painted version. Found the best price, including shipping, from a G scale vendor in Holland.

If anyone clicks on the "KISS" link I provided you might be interested to note one was supposedly painted as #497. Of course #497 is a K-37 not K-36. Having never seen any available, I believe they corrected their mistake and #497 was dropped as an option.
