I noticed how you use the 6 wide window upside down to get a inverse slope

I look forward to seeing your version of the Dutch locomotive, Eric.

By the way, what color scheme do you plan on using?  My use of yellow and gray
was dictated by the Dutch loco I saw in a Marklin model train catalog.  Are
newer Dutch engines of a different color?

I also await with great interest as to what length (number of studs) your loco
becomes, and what magnetic coupling assembly you employ.

Let us (me) know when you've got it your model up at your web site.

Best regards,
James Mathis

(...) Current Dutch trains are all Yellow, with blue stripes. This has been so for a pretty long time (>10 years at least). However, there has been a change in the placement of the stripes. Jasper (26 years ago, 17-Dec-98, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)
