Sweet model Joel! You may want to consider changing the way you connect the
horizontal railings to uprights using pirate hook hands jammed into short pieces
of technic tubing. I did this on the 2nd version of my SD-90 and you can
compare to the original in the background of this pic:

Take care!

| (...) I was actually looking at that picture just the other day, I love the look of your hook-hand tubing! I am actually trying to get enough hooks right now for my next engine, I only have 4 or 5 hook hands that aren't sunk into MOCs. cheers! Joel (...)

| Hiyas, I can't make it to the upcoming meeting, but I still have trains on the brains, so I made this today: (URL) is based on a Milwaukee Road Fairbanks-Morse H16-44 in a book that Ondrew gave me for rolling stock reference pics. Thanks again (...) (23 years ago, 7-Nov-01, to lugnet.trains.org.niltc)
