Hi All,
This is the first chance I had to get onto this news group. My company has
firewalls and really doesn't like too much personal use on the web...
Anyway, I used the wet version of the train decals. I like the way you can
slide them around before they stick. They tried to sell me the special fluid
to make them "stick better' but he do fine with water.  I used HO guage for
both the Chessie and the Union Pacific.
I would be flattered tohave my stuff copied. I have a few instructions on
the web site but not for the caboose.  I found it extremely time consuming
to create these. I might just resort to taking digital pics of them in
stages.  Is LeoCad harder to use then LDraw. I have never run LDraw, it
doesn't seem to ike windows PCs...??? I can use some help in this dept.  If
I got fast I would create instructions for all my creations.
Michael , if you need some help just give it a try with the photos on the
site and send some e-mail if you have any questions.

PS Please excuse my typing I am on my living room PC and it is hard to do
this from the couch.  Office system is down :(

I guess I should post this to RTL first, but I thought I'd try it
hear...

On PNLTC, there's a Chessie Caboose.  I'm guessing that stickers
were used on the caboose... Now, I've just recently gotten into
trains (so I know very little and next to nothing about model
trains) & I'm wondering that if I go into a train store, what
gauge of train stickers should I ask for to use with LEGO trains?

Next, I'm wondering if anyone has instructions to build the
Chessie Caboose?

Any help would be appreciated!
-- Mike.
