Will you be using the Britkits GP9? I believe they have the roof tanks. Also I have parts for the steam pipe, the beacon, and ice skate antenna.

If you take some time you would find that there were units with air tanks on top, under dynamic brakes, no dynamic brakes and w hole bunch of other variations. The one thing seems to be that SOP was to run them long hood forward. I'll do a couple of things. No ETA.
