>I hope you are addressing this to this Steve, I orginally requested
the help. I am following a mainline modeler article from several
years ago. I will look it up at home and get the year and month for
you. Start with .080 thick evergreen sheets and make a box with a
top. Then make a wrapper out of .005 styrene Sheet. I bought a set of
rivet dies from NWSL and just impressed them by had. I have an old
article on converting a sewing machine to do this but that project
will have to wait. Anyway after attaching the wrapper I am adding
details like the grabs and railing. The pictures of the brass engine
really help in placing the oil filler cap. There are other things on
the top that I cannot identify. I do have pictures of the top of a GN
P-2 showing several levers and a filler cap on top of the oil bunker.
I hope this helps a little. Steve
