Nice. You nailed that unit. Do you know the provenance? It kind of looks
like a GM or GE rather than a British unit. Any reason you chose it (other
than it looks cool with that inverse sloped windshield and cab overhang,
which came out great, by the way)?

Thanks for the praise, much appreciated.:-)

I mainly chose it because blue is a colour i have a lot of. Other than those
two front windows of course. Eventually i will pick some Blue ones of those
up on Brickbay etc.
Other than the front windscreen it wasn't too difficult either, good idea
for a first attempt i thought.
I also thought the yellow & blue colour scheme looked good together.

Here is a page with a heap of information about this class of engine.
