I purchased a Lionel 0-4-0 Pennsylvania loco for my father for |
|
father's day. I wanted to customize it to look like the little |
|
local one that used to run in this area. Just realized the one |
|
from here was an 0-4-0t. Anybody know where or if we can get a |
|
tinderbox add on to attach, or will we need to look for one with |
|
it already? Thanks. |

Hello & Welcome to the Forum! |
|
Bashing a locomotive can be fun or drive you crazy. |
|
Easiest fix: find a junk tender, introduce it to Mr. Razor Saw, |
|
affix the piece you cut off to the cab of your loco. Voila! |
|
Craftsman fix: get out your napkin & pen, design the fuel box, |
|
remembering the iron horse needs h2o also. |
|
Get out the sheets of styrene, lay out the pattern from your |
|
napkin, cut the pieces. Using the glue of your choice, put the |
|
pieces together, sand, attach to cab, paint, celebrate.... |
|
There's a photo of one of my large scale 0-4-0t bashes in the |
|
gallery. I'm a fan of 0-4-0 & 0-4-0t locomotives, have 10-12 |
|
large scale by various manufacturers & bashes. |
|
I hope this is of some help to you. |
|
Happy Rails! |
|
Dave |
