- Can-Style Radio Antennas contains a pack of six (6) radio antennas as used by the IC, ICG and other roads on diesel locomotives and cabooses. These plastic parts have a mounting pin for installation, if you want to drill hole, or it can be trimmed and glued directly to the roof of your model. SKU 1300 - Motorola Firecracker-Style Radio Antennas contains a pack of six (6) radio antennas as used by many railroads on diesel locomotives and cabooses. These turned-metal parts (not plastic!) are durable and won’t break and great for super-detailing exercises. SKU 1301 - Sinclair-Style Radio Antennas contains a pack of six (6) radio antennas as used by many railroads on diesel locomotives and cabooses. These plastic parts have mounting pins for installation, if you want to drill holes, or they can be trimmed off and glued directly to the roof of your model. SKU 1302 I don't think this specific part should be overlooked. I know we have several manufacturers producing both the Sinclair and Motorola antennas, but nobody's made the ICG antenna before; and also, I think this is the best rendition of both the sinclair and motorola antennas I've ever seen. They don't look like blobs like some others I've seen.

Details West (#276) and Detail Associates (#1801) make the Can style antenna. Both the Can and Firecrackers look great, but the Sinclair seems a bit small and squat. The real one is 21.5" long, unless ICG had their own version. There are three styles of them: the older, taller one, newer shorter one (both are 21.5" long though) and the super small one used for EOT's.
Great to see more parts offered though and look forward to more.
