Hi Steve,
I'm in the middle of doing 3 #34's out of the Bachman outside frame 2-8-0, biggest redo is cutting of the counter weights and redoing valve gear going from alligator crosshead to Laird crosshead.
Grizzly Mountain has the cab, stack and decals ( SN ) for the #34.
PSC has some parts but I had to fabricate some.
Other thing tender tank is 6" too low soI made up a 6"piece and added a plastic rivit strip around the bottom.
I'll bring one along in May to Kimberton fer you to look at.
Fred
In snowy cold Bayfeild, Co.
