OK thanks to some very helpful advice I made some significant changes to my
Boston & Maine GP9 Bluebird.

Its probably best just to see it yourself.  I have a write-up on the page as
well.

Ohhhh!  Very nice.  I like your radiator humps much better than the ones I
suggested.  Now...if I could just get around to becomming an actual Lego
railroader instead of an armchair one :-)

Much better! Indeed a cool model and the logo is an eye catcher.

Ben & Will,

Thanks so much for your help and comments.  I am quite happy with the model
now.  I work from home which has its good points and bad points but I have my
engine running circles in front of my desk at the moment on my extremely small
:( oval of LEGO track.  I really like it now especially watching it in action.

I need to place an order with LEGO Direct/S@H but I am currently compiling a
list and that list just got considerably longer with the new parts LEGO Direct
is offering.  I especially need more track!!

I think, time willing, this weekends free time will be devoted to a caboose to
go with my engine.  Caboose are my favorite railroad car and I love to tour
them when I get a chance.  In some ways it is unfortunate that they are no
longer needed on modern trains.  I will post some pictures once I get my
caboose to a point worthy of posting.


Thanks again, I really appretiate it.
