Brown was out of the question for the real brick model.  I will make an Ldraw
file and render it in brown.  I am building in red and yellow.  I originally had
the grill in grey, but after looking at some photos I decided to make it the

Thwarted by the color and part availability!  The Ldraw render should look
great, and the red and yellow just fine.

I have been thinking about how to build the front for a long time.  The nose is
mostly snot.  I am very hapy with the shape.

Indeed, a fine shape you found for the nose.  I like the use of the classic
windows on an older style train.

The model has shared trucks and runs well (fast).  I was excited and wanted to
post something even though it is not yet finished.  I will post more pictures
and Ldraw files as I completed them.

Great to hear it runs well.  The shrouded wheels look really nice.

later,
