Hi Larry,
just one question: What do you mean with "Alco C420"??? Is that the name of the
engine?? Sorry I have no idea about the manufacturer of the real one.
I really love "alligatornose"!! The first version had a 6-wide nose and a
5-wide part behind the cabin. But I decided to do it in 5-wide also: The blue
antenna, or what you call "alligatornose" is centered! It wasn't centered in
the 6-wide version. Good to have it changed!!
Greetings,
Holger
