Nice work David, I did mine up a couple of years ago almost the same way you did. They do make a cool looking train, here’s a video of mine from there 1st run. I like some others picked them up a few years ago when they were being blown out at very low prices. Nick http://youtu.be/s7OUIwuFdnY

I’m not seeing the the same mods I did Nick S?

And after lying motionless, the rooster all of a sudden wakes up and attacks… .yep that is a real rooster.

Totally spot on !!

Working on milling off the the bottom side stuff that know one will see but needs to be functional for proper roundy round operations.

Nice!

Bring it to Andy’s so I can put it on the ground? (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-innocent.gif)

I gotta get out there …you suppose dad is over throwing me out of the house by now? It was years ago since he spent my college fund on HIS railroad!

Plunger factories have test benches as well!

Rooster works area 69

OSHA crews showed up today and this guy is a real peckerhead.

Still in rough frame up mode and building for operational quality going roundy round with the 10’ rule applied. Details are for the museum quality foamers but not for me …it’s all about the shadows and minor details that make them appear including scratches and dents.

The elders taught me years ago that scratches and dents make a model.

It’s all good and to each his own but i would like to see some other Amtrash cars in this scale so I can compare my 10’ rule.

Thanks for looking!

Love it. In my next life I’m coming back as an Amtrak modeller.

In this life, I dabble as a Penn Central Modeler. Its just a bit more offensive them Amtrak.
