What's on My Work Bench

 I recently picked up the Minitrains Porter 0-6-0 HOn30 locomotive at Rider's Hobbies in Flint, Michigan. They carry Minitrains so it's worth a stop for that alone.

I added couplers. The front coupler is stationary and from an older MDC N scale truck.


Porter builder's plates from an old Flying Zoo set and a bell were added. The structure on the rear was enclosed to form a coal bunker. Coal will be added after paint and decals.
The number plate is from a Chivers kit where several are supplied.
