Rotary Snowplow

This kitbashed rotary snowplow began with an Athearn rotary plow, and I scratchbuilt the best of the car out of styrene, and what I believe are a Grandt Line windows, ladders, and foot-steps. I also built up the peaked structures on the tender. Here one of the ladders appears to have been knocked off in a mishap and is waiting for the boys at Albion Yards to replace it. My original plan was to place this over a Roundhouse/MDC boxcab diesel mechanism and have it either pull an unpowered locomotive or work together with one; I may do it yet.
