Cool 0n30 loco of the ?

Couple lousey pics of one of my 0n30 critters





What it is/was.

Loco is based on the KATO HO scale NW2.The walkway and steps are scratchbuilt,while the cab is a modified Bachmann 0n30 steamer cab.

The single exhaust stack is a cut down drinking straw.I made cab doors .but I just can't seem to talk myself into installing them.Future plans call for a rear headlight and working ditchlights on both ends (the Grande Valley is a modern day narrowgauge railroad)
