Found an old HO Train Set stored away behind a furnace and the tender is badly deformed from the heat. I don’t plan on ever running it, but thought I might clean it up and make a shadow box for it if I can find a tender. I just saw a pretty nice HO Mantua 4-6-2 UP Steam Engine W/ Tender sell for just under $50 on eBay, but I just want the tender and don’t want to pay that much.
Aw never mind, I just realized that I was searching for the wrong thing. I changed my search criteria and found a lot to chose from. Thanks Anyway.
Johnny ... I'm curious to see what you do with your shadowbox. If possible, would you post a photo or two when you are done? Thanx.
Well Bill I don’t have an HO layout, but I love trains especially Steamers. I’ll probably take this one to work and hang it on the wall of my office until I retire and then I guess it will go on the train room wall. I made this one below using N-Scale last year for my brother in law as a retirement present when he retired from NS. He worked in Pittsburgh since it was Penn Central so I bought three of each Road name while he worked there. I’ll probably do the same with this except it will have a desert back drop.
