  • A U30C from a U25B? Sounds a bit tough, especially looking at the difference in length between the two, as shown in these drawings..

    Even with the difference in scale, it's easy to see it would be quite a challange to bash a U25B into a U30C...
    Sorry that I couldn't give you dimensions..
    I would reccomend asking this question again on the garden railways forum, http://www.trains.com/community/forum/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=91
