Ken,
When did you sell the Westside EM-1? Also the T-3t? I think just maybe I know the fellows that bought BOTH of those! Unless you haven't sold 'em yet!
Thats if, you had listed 'em on ebay! The T-3t, especially, as I got one JUST like it in the shop a few moths ago, for custom painting! And I got $200.00 and a Akane B&O 2-8-2 Q-4b, for doing the work! 
THANKS for thinking of me! (I want to build a T-3t as that brass one, only, in plastic for existing parts and then of parts I've molded for that very purpose!

This one is a NICE one.....G scale I presume? Thing is, see the front cylinders? I badly need a set of them, just like them, in HO Scale! I am working on building the B&O's "Ols Maude" 0-6-6-0, that was the USA's first articulated, "Mallet" from 1904! From a Mantua logger! withtender...... I've got everything else to make this little monster.....

Ken,
Thanks for passing the URL on to Greenway sadly, I've been a custom to them for quite some time.....Sadly, I have not yet seen a T-3 pilot shield sold by anyone which leads me to believe, I'll be making one of them myself and will definately "cast" a mold for making more of them in the future! UNLESS I could find a T-3 in pieces for such purposes!
