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 :)

Hi Don. They are available ...but can be expensive. Accucraft do spare stacks (expensive) and so do some other detailers like Ozark miniatures http://www.ozarkminiatures.com/Scripts/prodList.asp < Link To http://www.ozarkminiature.com/Scripts/prodList.asp

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.
Regards
David
