More junk on the other side…battery boxes etc. need my tank sight glass yet,clean up the solder joints and then on to the front and rear pilot details. Building in my typical fashion with sections that are removable and can be serviced individually.

I’m going to say they look fantastic, but you’re probably not happy with them so they’ll get changed. Great work :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

I did cut the truck frames too match as well…the USA GP 7/9 for parts has worked well so far
naah cool with it …10’ rule underneath.

I see you have attended the Chandler School of Locomotive Detailing. Very nice work!

Patiently waiting for an update :slight_smile:
It’s been two weeks. Is it done yet?
I don’t think you’re going to be able to stretch this out to 25,000 hits :wink:
