Hi John,


You *have* been busy, HoMa!  An excellent creation, and wonderfully detailed • as
well!  Very nice:-)

Thanks!


I have a question about the drivers-- they appear to be LEGO, although the • outer
rims appear metal....

That's right. Another AFOL from the german forum asked his metall-working
colleagues if it would be possible to make some aluminium rims for the old
spoked wheels - and it WAS possible. The engine runs brilliant on the tracks.

Also, no need to follow-up to .build; just cross-post to .trains and .build. • We
certainly want discussions about your beautiful train here in .trains as well!

Sorry for that!

Thanks for posting!

You're welcome ;-)

HoMa
