Take a look at my newest MOC.

It is a model of the Mallard, a LNER A4 that broke the steam speed record in
1938. It still holds that record.

(...) Well this is a very fine model. See (URL) for prototype pics. The large spoked wheels? These have a custom rim I suppose? Not sure the headlight bricks at the fron are necessary. Anyway I think it looks more like the Dwight D Eisenhower A4! (...) (22 years ago, 20-Apr-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Wow. lots to like there. My fave items are that you buried the power truck in the pilot skirting, that the side skirts are slanted down, and that you mananged connecting rods, although the lack of a main rod is a shame. (But understandable!) (...) (22 years ago, 21-Apr-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I like how the front black tiles slope in multi-panel-angles. Looks smooth and has a nice curve. Lots to appreciate in your design solutions! later, James Mathis (22 years ago, 22-Apr-03, to lugnet.trains)
