A first look: My Kitbashed Engines

I was, and probably shall remain, an HO scale modeler. I have also begun modeling in OO scale, an obscure scale from the 1930's, and shall be posting my work, and occasionally how I made them, here.

To begin with, my first 2 Kitbashed, HO scale engines:

1.  Cherokee Valley No. 34, a Belpaire boilered 2-8-0 patterned roughly after a PRR H-9

2.  An unnumbered 4-4-0, for which I got the idea from a trim, rather British looking D&LW 4-4-2
