Bachmann mogul into CNR engine - sailormatlac - 01-13-2012 Hi! AS I said in my challenge, I was thinking about turning a Bachmann new 2-6-0 into QRL&PCo #22. After some check up, both engine have little in common, except driver size. No suitable kitbashable model exist for this engine, the wheelbase is far too short, cab very small and boiler very short too... I would mean to rework the motor completely. I know we have some very knowledgeable CNR fans here. I bet some people already tried to see which CNR class this mogul could be turn into. My little researches show me that many classes could be done. Many share the right dome arrangement too, which simplify the kitbasher's life a lot... Matt Re: Bachmann mogul into CNR engine - cn nutbar - 01-14-2012 Hi Matt---I know Doctor Wayne has also discussed kitbashing this locomotive into a Canadian National mogul---having seen your other conversions,I'm looking forward to seeing your creation.Here's a Pacific Fast Mail/Van Hobbies brass model of an E-10-A Mogul,it may be a good option to consider
