Interchanging 4-6-2 loco shells

All,

    I've got a damaged loco 4-6-2 K4 (PPR 3750) and I am wondering if I can use a light pacific B&O shell.  I have a spare B&O tender to swap out the Penneslyvania tender.

    Is this possible?

Is that a DC model or a DCC model? I think the  some were Spectrum's at one time. I have seen one type at the TCS site.

It's a DCC model.   Has a Tsunami decoder right now.  Dropped off upper level while running around.  Had just finished putting in track work and was checking for problems.  Was too far away when I noticed it falling.  Have not checked to see if it still runs.

Tough to tell. I was just at the TCS decoder site and looked at the DC version and DCC version and with my eye sight I could not tell. The photo resolution not the best and no idea about fasteners..
Look in the Parts page for shells. Put fence around layout.
