No need to apologize for any delay. I just like to get a feeling for how big
everyone is building. I think I caught Nealitis in a big way. Most of my stuff
is right at the GMLTC limit, and some of my stuff is over the limit by quite a
bit (15 studs over for my SD40-2[1]). But I am having fun building, and that is
the important part.
I didn't say it before, but those SD90's would look even more awesome if they
were longer :?) Again, love your work, and I am happy to have learned a few new
things while checking out your models.
Thanks for the extra info,
Chris
1. Technically, according to my scaling scheme, my engine is a few stud too long.
