I’m really liking this also...lots of detail and nice building techniques,
inparticluar the main boiler shape. The whole thing reminds me of the 9F I’ve
just built in many ways.

This is a great MOC and I love the colors. As others have mentioned, the white
on the drivers really sets them off. Was that paint, white-out, white ink,
other? I like the way you shrouded the rear wheels. A very nice touch. The
boiler design is something I haven’t seen before. Very interesting. Are the
rubber bands there for any support function or are they just being used as
decoration? Again, great work. For a first attempt at a steam engine, I’d say
you absolutely nailed it. You definitely have some talent for building
steamies. I can’t wait to see your future work.
Best Regards,
