Still looking for a smokebox front for Blaxland 5. I'm not talking about the stock mantua/ tyco smokebox front, I'm talking about a brass or plastic casting, so I can mount a headlight on the front Does anyone have one or know of a good replacement? I need one .80" in diameter. Ones a bit smaller would be fine too but no smaller than .70"
Thanks in advance!

Is it the 0-4-0/0-6-0 plastic boiler version? A 2-6-6-2 front piece off of the Mantua mallet's will work. What I used on my 2-8-0 bash. " Heck with counting 'em rivets, TRAINS ARE FOR FUN! Not called the Mad Scientist for nothing either!"

I dont have any bulbs at the moment but if I ever get some I may. I'll have to drill through the headlight and smokebox front though. I dont think I intend on doing so.
