I am about to make history and need your help. I need to convert a working steam locomotive into a steam locomotive shell that can drive on a highway.

Sort of like putting a fiberglass Ferrari body on top of a Volkswagon chassis.

I need the following: to buy a steam locomotive, to find a railroad Works that can gut the steam locomotive and attach a chassis with rubber tires and engine to pull the load. (pull two to four railcars).

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
