I love the idea, Brian. It's a nice small railmotor - putting all under one roof is a good idea. Have you got a power bogie already? I once made another railmotor using the same approach - a push chassis and a power bogie. However in my case the bogie is a cut down Fleischmann 7000 chassis which is rather bigger.
I'll watch this develop. Are you going to put a continuous frame under the loco and the coach?

I had a power bogie but its not got the humf to move the rail car unless i fill it with lead
Today i have not been felling to good so I been playing with this
1st i fitted the power bogie to the coach all ok on the straight but would not go around 9 inch curves(the loco was the problem & not the power bogie )
I then made the coach pivet on the back of the loco now all ok on the curves, But now under power i would need to fill the coach with lead to get it to move so i have just orded a Kato 11-105 chassis which i will remove one bogie then use to power the railcar & there are now 2 roofs
the loco is now finished & been primed ready for painting
heres some photos before primer

the coach body is now in primmer & drying
Looking very smart, but it's a pity you had to separate the loco from the coach. But it's more important that it will actually run!
David.
got some more done
I still need to fit out the interia & fit a coupling on the coach
the roof has 3 lamps & pipe work added the painting is finished but i may weather it yet
