Hi everyone! I was wondering if anyone knew of someone who makes custom locos. I model the Norfolk & Western and unfortunately, no one makes a Class A 2-6-6-4. And I'm exploring my options. Maybe even modifying a 2-6-6-2. Let me know if you have any suggestions. And happy NewYear!
 


No it doesn't have to be brass. But, it does have to be N Scale haha. I've been hoping that they would do the Class A in N but I've been waiting for a while. But thanks for looking!

Commissioning a custom model in brass is not impossible, but could cost you several thousand dollars before it's all done and over with! There would be hundreds of hours of work, even if things such as correctly sized drivers are available. If these had to be fabricated as well, the cost would be even higher! How deep are your pockets?
