Title: Pilot truck part question
Post by: lanny on June 12, 2007, 05:54:48 PM

Hi all,

Can anyone give me a 'heads up' on where I can locate this kind of pilot truck? It was used on the only Hudson (4-6-4) the ICRR ever owned. I've attached a photo of the truck. I maybe missed something, but haven't been able to find it in the 'Bowser' super detail company parts they have available. Thanks for any help!

Lanny,
That's a good reason to switch to C&O, even with the awful streamlined Hudsons she had!

Lanny,

Take a look at a SP cab forward, I think you find what you need.

Sheldon,

That sure looks close. do you have any suggestions where a 4 wheel pilot like that might be purchased?

Thanks!
