Photo - GN O-3 Class Facelift

My first modification to my Broadway GN Heavy Mikado. These were placed in the GN O-3 Class and heavily modified after WWII. My first detail change was to add flying pumps, relocate the headlight, and the addition of numberboards. More changes are on the way as I find the time to work on it. Photo by Sean Murphy.
