| | | The 10133 BNSF GP-38 Locomotive is a nice engine. (URL) But why uses those stickers for the exhaust fans, when you can use BBB wheels: (URL) This mod uses three BBB 17.6mm flanged train wheels. No other parts are necessary. Webpage at: (URL) Cheers, (...) (19 years ago, 31-Aug-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
