Rotary Snowplow

Model Railroader General Discussion (Model Railroader)

Just received the rotary snowplow kit by tichy trains, I guess they bought the molds from Dimi Trains. Anyway I am looking for a tender for the snowplow, any ideas?
Being the rookie that I am, I thought of a model power Vanderbilt Tender or scratchbuild or buying a used tender at a show. Any Ideas, it is a great model with great detailing and I also purchased the Repair Car and Crew Car kits, but my real dilemna is the snowplow.

Please advise. Trainster

Your text is way too small, I can’t read it from across the street.

The only advice I can give, other than shrinking your font a bit[:D], is what RR are you modeling? First, not all rotary snowplows had tenders, some were electric and got their power from the diesel pushing them. Others were oil or coal fired. Each RR would probably have used old tenders from retired/scrapped/wrecked locomotives.
