Gene,

Good luck on your PC MP-54 project.  I checked my railroad photo
database and find that I have slides or negatives of the following cars
lettered PC:

409   411   415   416   419   422   425   426   431   433   437   438
440   443   445   494   618   630   631   659   660   662   671   682
690   701   746   753   919  3580  

Not all cars may be powered (some may just be trailers with no
pantographs).  I can't tell for sure without actually pulling the
negatives from the file.  

Word of warning:  Paint styles vary (especially striping below the
windows-some have it, but most don't)! To be historically accurate, work
from a photo.

Joe,
You might check with Imperial Hobby Productions, PO Box 487, Wynnewood, PA
19096.  They occasionally have ads in MR for commuter equipment.  My
present hobby is scratch building HO PC MP-54's I now 4, but still do not
know which ones PC repainted from PRR Tuscan, except for 417, 421? and 700.
