I have been creating O-gauge White Pass rolling stock for years. I found a computer model of a GE Shovelnose created by a talented 3D modeler named James Will. A few years ago James had a stroke and can only communicate with eye movement now. I spoke with James' Wife, who talked to James about it. He has given me permission to sell his model through the Shapeways platform. I also have done some modeling of rolling stock myself.

I scaled these White Pass models so that they are printable in O, S, HO, and N-scale. Available on Shapeways.com

These GE shovelnose locomotives are being sold off, by the White Pass and Yukon Route Railroad, and may soon appear at a narrow gauge railroad near you. The containers were used for hauling ore from the Anvil mine in the 70s and 80s.

Tom,

Every post you do brings back many memories from my time there in 1975, I have wanted to return ever since for a visit and ride to White Horse but have yet to be able to convince the other half it is a destination for our bucket list.

Well, you can't ride to Whitehorse anymore. The section from Carcross to Whitehorse hasn't been used since the 80s. But the ride is still breathtaking.
