Paul-

I think your engines are en fuego!  I am a big fan  of 6 stud wide stuff
because it goes a long way IMO to create realism.  I can hear the groans
and the sound of pick-axes already as the GMLTC begins road construction
to widen the lanes;-)
I especially like you having photographed them outside;  the sunlight
really makes them look cool:-)  My question is how prototypical are
these engines?  It appears that you are definitely modeling in some
cases and taking creative license in others, or in all cases?
Personally, I try to model as faithfully as I can to a prototype, and
then as a last resort create features that *resemble* reality.  What
turns my crank is finding new applications of specialty pieces to
heighten realism (oh oh).

I am sorry that I missed the fest and seeing the vehicles in person.
They look great:-)

I have finally updated the 6 wide fire truck pictures at
my site with the vehicles I showed at the Twin Cities
Lego Fest.  See them at:
