Hi all,

I uploaded pics of my 4-6-4 Hudson steam engine and tender this afternoon.
They can be found at:

A couple of points about the engine:

(1)  For once, I can recount the exact date of conception for the project!  I
started working on the design for this on April 29th of this year.
Interestingly, this *exactly* coincides with John Neal's post about his son
Ross's amazing 4-6-2 Pacific engine:
(http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=16328).  I was inspired by the
amazing detail on that engine to try another design of my own.


Wow, Shaun, you have outdone even yourself here!  You have raised the bar so
high that it will be extremely difficult to top.  Your double piston rod design
is nothing short of amazing; Ross was extremely impressed! (a higher compliment
I can't imagine:-)

Interestingly, I was about to post Ross' latest MOC, which was in part inspired
by *you*, but I think I'll hold off a bit and let you and Will bask in your
well-deserved glory.

Well done!

-John
