I have posted pictures of my completed GG-1 - see
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=11823.
The locomotive is 6-wide (of course) and 50 studs long. You can only do so

| (...) I think this is a beautiful example of this classic engine. One of the finest in lego I've seen. I like the way you incorporated the sloping pin stripe on the side. Very creative. Keep up the good work. Cheers, John Warren (22 years ago, 19-Feb-02, to lugnet.trains)
