Does anyone know of a place to get a logging front for a 2-6-9? Mine cane with a cattle catcher and I would like to change it for a logging loco.
I'm assuming you mean the 2-6-0 Mogul. A 2-6-9 would be an odd beastie, indeed.
Firebox Models makes a resin kit for a 2-6-0 switching pilot. As I recall, assembly was mostly superglue, and it has worked fine.

EDM in the UK also makes a kit that is more metal-based. Perhaps someone who has assembled one can provide some hands-on info.

Thanks for correcting my typing errors. And thanks for the info, that's exactly what I needed.
