Thanks Eric. That’s what I thought. 
Much appreciated.

(I have seen HO models of the similar European locos, but just don't pay much attention to European or O-scale models.)  The Europeans did have electrics with the jackshafts between the driver axles on both ends of the loco.  I don't know how the axle spacings compare.  If they were produced on O-scale, you would have to fabricate a new body.  Not sure about the roof or pantographs.
