Awesome. The end of the train needs a Tomar Drumhead.

You know what someone needs to make in O scale? The blunt ended Vista series from the '55-'57 Super Chief.
Indeed that would be a car I would go for! We need the right trucks too.
I had the drumhead art just no time to work up the detailing. 2 kids, one 4 the other 9 months takes a lot of my time.

Tomar does make this drumhead as a kit, if you are pressed for time. I've used a couple of their kits and they are nice. I've used them for my versions of the Super Chief, Chief, and El Capitan. But I model up till about 1954, when Santa Fe still used boat tail observation cars on those big 3 name trains.
