Hi, I have had this project wondering around my mind  ::). It is Bachmann's White Pass & Yukon 10Th anniversary G Scale loco. I got a set back when i was 1 and thanks to my grandpa it still works! I now model ho scale and want a replica if possible.... i also would like to make a caboose replica of the it and that would be White Pass caboose #903.I hopefully can add the tender Product Code: 89821. I also gotta look for extra parts cow catcher, back light, etc. Any thing else? any suggestions? Thanks!!!!!! ;)

Since White pass and Yukon is 3 ft. narrow gauge, a closer match would be On30 scale/gauge,

which happens to run on HO gauge track.

Edit: added "which..." 

If your loco is too heavy to lift, you'd better be able to ride in, on or behind it.

On30 is O scale trains which run on HO track.
If you want an HO Scale model, it would have to run on HOn3 gauge track, which Micro Engineering makes, but it will be an expensive endeavor.

Bugger! :'(  well..... is that the only way because i don't have a job/allowance (to young/???) and would like it to be under $250 for the steamer and $40ish on the caboose. Sigh....how much am i looking at and is my idea still possible? I would like it to work as a ho scale engine with the rest of my roster, also ho scale
