I want to hack about a couple of Bachmann locos, please does anyone know if there are suppliers of steam domes, chimneys etc that are compatible ? F'r instance, changing the spark collector chimney on the 2-6-0 to a stovepipe ?

Thanks :)
 
GRS at Princes Risborough usually have a grab box of odds and ends which sometimes include loco spares. Might be worth a phone call.
 
I made a replacement chimney for my switcher using the smoke stack unit from an Aristocraft cabboose, and wired it up it works as well as it did on the cabboose,​

In the past I have made a stovepipe smock stack by cutting off and using the base of the Bachmann unit with a piece of K&S brass tube epoxied on.Once cleaned up and painted it looked great.
