I have converted the Bachmann 2-8-0 with the 2-6-0 boiler, minor cutting and grinding. The 2-8-0 boiler/cab is about 1&1/2 inches longer,
perhaps a 2-8-2 chassis might work better or boiler shortening would be required.

Thinking back to what InsideTrack said, I wonder how difficult it would be to show the factory the artwork that the large scale brake van is using, and apply it to the OO/HO brake van.
[It would be one heck of an improvement, and rekindle interest in a product that a lot of people have forgotten about.
