From the 2-8-2, it has been converted into the Chessie Special 4-8-4, Timken Four Aces #1111 4-8-4, and made into a New York Ontario & Western 4-8-2. Prices start from $750 per engine which includes the engine. Each project is different, so prices may be higher.

We are always looking for interesting projects. In the past Shawmut made MARC commuter line 4 GP40WH diesels for their offices, recently converted 2 Lil Critters into a slug unit. After the MARC units were built using SD45 long hoods with SD70m cabs mounted on GP40 trucks, Shawmut had 6 axles trucks left over with GP40 bodies. These were converted into SD35 ( C & O and SP), N & W SD39, and a MILW SDL39 by plugging various exhaust fans and adding the or deleting the appropriate fan. The units were also configured to the particular railroad in appearance. The catalog shows these examples.
Shawmut is currently painting for several modelers the NS heritage series locomotives. So far a PRR Dash 9, a Reading dash 9 ( customer prefers Aristocraft locomotives) and for a 1:32 MTH modeler, a PRR Dash 8, a NYC Dash 8, and a READING Dash 8
