On page 79 of "The complete book of Model Railroading", the author briefly covers a cab forward conversion in HO for the popular Lil' Joe 0-4-0 locomotive. I was amazed to see this and have now added it to my list of model railroading "Wants". The example offered up in the book shows such a locomotive complete with trailing trucks and a shorty vanderbilt tender!

It appears this outfit sells the conversion kit:

I believe the Broake & Howe Railroad REALLY needs one of these fabulous little locomotives!
