Hi Ed, Jace; If you already had a Miller body and frame in hand, getting the North Yard drive to power it MIGHT make some sense. The Railmaster Alco kit detail will be much superior, and you will spend a LOT of time modifying the Miller frame to take the North Yard drive components to the point that I don't see the value in trying to combine the two. Unless you have a sentimental attachment to the Miller unit, I'd get the full kit from Railmaster and skip buying any old Miller components. I suspect the time spent will be more reasonable and final result will be more satisfying.
