I think the EM-1 Bares a likeness to the AC9, and making the EM1 look like an AC9 would not be all that difficult.

I have been looking for the Mountain, but on eBay, By the time I get ready to bid on one, the price has risen so high I can no longer afford it. But I keep on trying.

Anyway, my focus was not on how it would look, But on whether or not would the dcc connectors fit or not!

I'll get to the point of my inquiry, I'm planning on buying either a USRA Light 2-10-2 or EM-1, 2-8-8-4, But I don't like the tenders they're pulling, So are the aftermarket DCC Ready Vanderbilt Tenders DCC connectors compatable with the above locomotives?
