Title: Kitbashing Williams hopper into On30?
Post by: ksivils on August 08, 2009, 11:35:43 PM
Has anyone tried kitbashing one of the Williams hoppers into an On30 one?

Just curious what the results were if so.

Is this a doable kitbash?

I realize that Bachmann has the On30 hoppers available, this effort would be a one-off just to have something different in the mix for operations.

  For a different hopper's, check out what is offered in S scale. I have converted two
hoppers for use on my layout. "S-Scale Helper" or "Pacific Rail".
