Kitbashed HOn3 rail bus

Hi all!

This weekend, at the narrow gauge convention I arranged, I bought a german made Halling drive truck in HOm gauge (12mm) that I converted to HOn3.
I also bought a bus kit from Highway miniatures that could be the starting point for something fun.....
My friend Peter has had some opinions [:)] on the locomotives he uses on the narrow gauge line on his museum layout (a Swedish freelance layout).
I reckoned that this could be a bit more Swedish than the C&S Galloping Goose he uses now....
Now Sanslösa järnvägar (SJ) will get a new rail bus inspired from various real examples.


A few pics from the build:









It runs like a charm!

I love the (relatively) giant headlight.
