Looking for a USAT NW2 hood

I have a USAT Calf but I’m not a fan of the dropped part where the cab would usually sit. I’m looking for the long hood part that I can join to the one I have and make a slug. Roadname doesn’t matter since it will be repainted.

Does anyone have just the hood part that is collecting dust they would sell?

I’m looking to make a unit like this one I did for my Mighty Moe but for the NW2 and the S4 to share.


I feel like I just saw something similar as an STL file last night. Probably Thingiverse, but I can’t be sure…

(not sure if you want to go that route, but figured I’d mention it)

Thanks John but it would be better if I could find a hood instead of 3D printing one. The printing is never as good as a molded one from the manufacturer and I already have one side so… A couple of cuts on the mitre saw and I would be in business.

Did you try Charlie RO

Yes I had a look at USAT and they have them but a bit more than I wanted to spend. I was hoping to find one for less.

What were they asking for the long hood? I guess you had to call Butch?

I saw it on the website for $50

I may have one, give me a couple of days to dig out the parts?junk bin in my shed.

Come on Pat, you are getting as bad as Marconi with this hoarding stuff!
:smiley:

Great. Let me know. I’m still looking.
I made a mistake on the one I saw on USAT site. It was O gauge.

it comes with being a fireman
