Bashing a G scale steam locomotive. This engine was a 4-6-0 Bachmann "toy train". I shortened the frame to turn it into a 2-4-0 Porter. I made the boiler from a spray paint can wrapped with styrene. The steam dome is PVC pipe glued up and turned on the lathe. It seemed to do the job so I'll make the sand dome the same way. I'll scrathbuild the cab. I found a tender on ebay cheap that I'll do some modifications to. I plan on running it with radio control, which looks like the way of the future for powering model railroad engines. Anyway it's just going to be a fun project for me!
