Dear Mr. Bachmann:

Here is a prototype example which could be modeled using the existing Industrial Mogul and Porter tooling:

Lee Riley likes logging locomotives and that is an attractive logging  locomotive. I did not know that attractive logging locomotives existed. "Attactive" and "logging" seem to be a contradiction in terms!

Only the fuel bin and cab/fuel bin floor need to be tooled if a summer cab version is produced ( my preference ).

All of the other parts, except for the arc headlamp, exist in your tooling inventory.

Definitely a future kitbash project for myself.

The Norfolk Lumber Company loco No. 1 has three domes as per the Indy

while the Otranto Lumber Company loco "HARRY" has two domes which would require a tooling modification.

Gloss black loco hauling a string of six light weight logging disconnects would make a nice consist.
