Thanks. If I may ask, which part of it is cool? I personally like the wheelset, cause repeating circles is time-consuming.

I like the wheels to and that something about it has a european look but it is so obviously built for use in the US.

Really? European? Ok, I've only done things that would be found in America since I am one. I can't stand those stupid looking bumpers that British trains have and the inside cylinders that their steamers have.

Yep, looks kind of like a child of one of this www.railpictures.net/photo/493… "SBB Ae 3/6 II rod-drive electric, built by SLM forty years earlier in 1924, waits to leave Olten with a local train."

True. I would love to see it built in 7 1/2" gauge. That way I could drive it. I know of a club near me that might let me test run it there.

I'm uploading a new drawing now. It's a horizontal boiler 2-2-0 steam locomotive. No prototype.
