I looked at RRPA and came up with two photos that appear to show the placement
of the wagon wheel antenna on the NW2s. It looks like they were installed on
the narrow strip between the vents.

Not all NW2s had radios installed and not all NW2s that had radios had wagon
wheel antennas. I recently purchased a model of NW2 9211 and from the photo I
have been able to find, it had a can type antenna on the roof of the cab. Just
a note for modelling purposes.
