I am not sure what you are seeing. I have looked at this photo real close and can't see what you are indicating. It may appear that the turn table is raised a slight bit, but I think that it the way is was constructed.
Diffrences in the Truck's******
If you all could see the shop numbers on the trucks, the first 2 numbers indicated the year. Not sure when Philly started putting their name on the nose, but sure looks good!
As far as the ground ladders on the RM's, I think those on the Operators side are all flat loaded and those on the Officer's side at vertical.
