Yes, I both kitbash and scratchbuild. As for locomotives, I have four scratchbuilt live steamers using some of the tougher to make components from suppliers. I do not do cylinders, but do some valve gear as well as my own boilers. I have a Bachman Climax that is repainted, all planking done in actual wood, and a self designed battery-R/C system. Rolling stock is mostly modified Bachman Big Hauler 1:22.5. Recent project is a drovers caboose from a Bachman combine, boxcar roof and sratchbuilt coupla. Some cars are scratchbuilt, mostly log cars. Nothing is left stock except for a couple of structures. I need to scratchbuild some structures for my layout as I an sadly lacking there. Most on the layout are out-of-the-box. This must be changed. That's what winter is for, the building season.
