I would like to see a 0-4-4 version of the Forney made like this one.

I can't get into the web site without a password.   I hope it looks like W. W. & F. #10!

The MaineOn2 Yahoo group has published photos of models of the various Maine  Forneys on their Fotopic site at http://maineon2faq.fotopic.net/c810302.html which should be easily accessible,

Sorry, I forgot you have to be logged in to see that area of the forum, but this:  http://www.nmia.com/~vrbass/steam/forney1.jpg (http://www.nmia.com/~vrbass/steam/forney1.jpg)  is close to it, other than being inside frame instead of outside and not modernized.

If you took the pilot truck off of the Bachmann o.f. Forney, shortened it, and changed some details, it would be close.  I guess it could be kitbashed pretty easily. 

But for something different, I've had this idea in my head for a while of a 0-4-4 Forney with 1 fluted and 1 modern dome, an oil light converted to an electric light, an open wood cab, covered with "junk", and very battered.
